Constructor Detail

Spline

public Spline()
Creates the Spline tool with defaults.

Initializes the array of tool parameters with the default values specified when the tool was created.


Spline

public Spline(Object inPointFeatures,
              Object zField,
              Object outRaster)
Creates the Spline tool with the required parameters.

Initializes the array of tool parameters with the values as specified for the required parameters and with the default values for the other parameters.

Parameters:
inPointFeatures - the input point features containing the z-values to be interpolated into a surface raster.
zField - the field that holds a height or magnitude value for each point. this can be a numeric field or the Shape field if the input point features contains z-values.
outRaster - the output interpolated surface raster.
Method Detail

getInPointFeatures

public Object getInPointFeatures()
Returns the Input point features parameter of this tool . This parameter is the input point features containing the z-values to be interpolated into a surface raster. This is a required parameter.

Returns:
the Input point features

setInPointFeatures

public void setInPointFeatures(Object inPointFeatures)
Sets the Input point features parameter of this tool . This parameter is the input point features containing the z-values to be interpolated into a surface raster. This is a required parameter.

Parameters:
inPointFeatures - the input point features containing the z-values to be interpolated into a surface raster.

getZField

public Object getZField()
Returns the Z value field parameter of this tool . This parameter is the field that holds a height or magnitude value for each point. this can be a numeric field or the Shape field if the input point features contains z-values. This is a required parameter.

Returns:
the Z value field

setZField

public void setZField(Object zField)
Sets the Z value field parameter of this tool . This parameter is the field that holds a height or magnitude value for each point. this can be a numeric field or the Shape field if the input point features contains z-values. This is a required parameter.

Parameters:
zField - the field that holds a height or magnitude value for each point. this can be a numeric field or the Shape field if the input point features contains z-values.

getOutRaster

public Object getOutRaster()
Returns the Output raster parameter of this tool . This parameter is the output interpolated surface raster. This is a required parameter.

Returns:
the Output raster

setOutRaster

public void setOutRaster(Object outRaster)
Sets the Output raster parameter of this tool . This parameter is the output interpolated surface raster. This is a required parameter.

Parameters:
outRaster - the output interpolated surface raster.

getCellSize

public Object getCellSize()
Returns the Output cell size parameter of this tool . This parameter is the cell size at which the output raster will be created. this will be the value in the environment if it is explicitly set. Otherwise, it is the shorter of the width or the height of the extent of the input point features, in the input spatial reference, divided by 250. This is an optional parameter.

Returns:
the Output cell size

setCellSize

public void setCellSize(Object cellSize)
Sets the Output cell size parameter of this tool . This parameter is the cell size at which the output raster will be created. this will be the value in the environment if it is explicitly set. Otherwise, it is the shorter of the width or the height of the extent of the input point features, in the input spatial reference, divided by 250. This is an optional parameter.

Parameters:
cellSize - the cell size at which the output raster will be created. this will be the value in the environment if it is explicitly set. Otherwise, it is the shorter of the width or the height of the extent of the input point features, in the input spatial reference, divided by 250.

getSplineType

public String getSplineType()
Returns the Spline type parameter of this tool . This parameter is the type of spline to be used. This is an optional parameter.

Returns:
the Spline type

setSplineType

public void setSplineType(String splineType)
Sets the Spline type parameter of this tool . This parameter is the type of spline to be used. This is an optional parameter.

Parameters:
splineType - the type of spline to be used.

getWeight

public double getWeight()
Returns the Weight parameter of this tool . This parameter is parameter influencing the character of the surface interpolation. when the REGULARIZED option is used, it defines the weight of the third derivatives of the surface in the curvature minimization expression. If the TENSION option is used, it defines the weight of tension. the default weight is 0.1. This is an optional parameter.

Returns:
the Weight

setWeight

public void setWeight(double weight)
Sets the Weight parameter of this tool . This parameter is parameter influencing the character of the surface interpolation. when the REGULARIZED option is used, it defines the weight of the third derivatives of the surface in the curvature minimization expression. If the TENSION option is used, it defines the weight of tension. the default weight is 0.1. This is an optional parameter.

Parameters:
weight - parameter influencing the character of the surface interpolation. when the REGULARIZED option is used, it defines the weight of the third derivatives of the surface in the curvature minimization expression.
