All Implemented Interfaces:

Direct Known Subclasses:

public class Band extends AbstractBand
A band contains the data for geophysical parameter in remote sensing data products. Bands are two-dimensional images which hold their pixel values (samples) in a buffer of the type ProductData. The band class is just a container for attached metadata of the band, currently:
  • the flag coding FlagCoding
  • the band index at which position the band is stored in the associated product
  • the center wavelength of the band
  • the bandwidth of the band
  • the solar spectral flux of the band
  • the width and height of the band
The band can contain a buffer to the real data, but this buffer must be read explicitely, to keep the memory fingerprint small, the data is not read automatically.

The several getPixel and readPixel methods of this class do not necessarily return the values contained in the data buffer of type ProductData. If the scalingFactor, scalingOffset or log10Scaled are set a conversion of the form scalingFactor * rawSample + scalingOffset is applied to the raw samples before the getPixel and @ readPixel methods return the actual pixel values. If the log10Scaled property is true then the conversion is pow(10, scalingFactor * rawSample + scalingOffset). The several setPixel and writePixel perform the inverse operations in this case.

    • readRasterDataFully

      public void readRasterDataFully(ProgressMonitor pm) throws IOException
      Reads the complete underlying raster data.

      After this method has been called successfully, hasRasterData() should always return true and getRasterData() should always return a valid ProductData instance with at least getRasterWidth()*getRasterHeight() elements (samples).

      In opposite to the loadRasterData method, the readRasterDataFully method always reloads the data of this product raster, independently of whether its has already been loaded or not.

      readRasterDataFully in class RasterDataNode
      Parameters:
      pm - a monitor to inform the user about progress
      Throws:
      IOException - if an I/O error occurs

      Writes data from this product raster into the specified region of the user-supplied raster.

      It is important to know that this method does not change this product raster's internal state nor does it write into this product raster's internal raster.

      Specified by:
      writeRasterData in class RasterDataNode
      Parameters:
      offsetX - the X-offset in raster co-ordinates where reading starts

    • removeFromFile

      public void removeFromFile(ProductWriter productWriter)
      Description copied from class: ProductNode

      Parameters:
      histoSkipAreas - the left (at index 0) and right (at index 1) normalized areas of the raster data histogram to be excluded when determining the value range for a linear constrast stretching. Can be null, in this case {0.01, 0.04} resp. 5% of the entire area is skipped.
      pm - a monitor to inform the user about progress
      Returns:
      a valid image information instance, never null.

    • dispose

      public void dispose()
      Releases all of the resources used by this object instance and all of its owned children. Its primary use is to allow the garbage collector to perform a vanilla job.

      This method should be called only if it is for sure that this object instance will never be used again. The results of referencing an instance of this class after a call to dispose() are undefined.

      Overrides of this method should always call super.dispose(); after disposing this instance.

      Overrides:
      dispose in class RasterDataNode
