Class AbstractCoverage

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable, PropertySource, Coverage
    Direct Known Subclasses:
    AbstractGridCoverage
    public abstract class AbstractCoverage
extends PropertySourceImpl
implements Coverage
    Base class of all coverage type. The essential property of coverage is to be able to generate a value for any point within its domain. How coverage is represented internally is not a concern. For example consider the following different internal representations of coverage:

    • A coverage may be represented by a set of polygons which exhaustively tile a plane (that is each point on the plane falls in precisely one polygon). The value returned by the coverage for a point is the value of an attribute of the polygon that contains the point.
    • A coverage may be represented by a grid of values. The value returned by the coverage for a point is that of the grid value whose location is nearest the point.
    • Coverage may be represented by a mathematical function. The value returned by the coverage for a point is just the return value of the function when supplied the coordinates of the point as arguments.
    • Coverage may be represented by combination of these. For example, coverage may be represented by a combination of mathematical functions valid over a set of polynomials.

        protected AbstractCoverage​(CharSequence name,
                           CoordinateReferenceSystem crs,
                           PropertySource propertySource,
                           Map<?,​?> properties)
        Constructs a coverage using the specified coordinate reference system. If the coordinate reference system is null, then the subclasses must override getDimension().
        Parameters:
        name - The coverage name, or null if none.
        crs - The coordinate reference system. This specifies the CRS used when accessing a coverage or grid coverage with the evaluate(...) methods.
        propertySource - The source for this coverage, or null if none. Source may be (but is not limited to) a PlanarImage or an other AbstractCoverage object.
        properties - The set of properties for this coverage, or null if there is none. Keys are String objects (CaselessStringKey are accepted as well), while values may be any Object.

      • AbstractCoverage

        protected AbstractCoverage​(CharSequence name,
                           Coverage coverage)
        Constructs a new coverage with the same parameters than the specified coverage.

        Note: This constructor keeps a strong reference to the source coverage (through PropertySourceImpl).

        Parameters:
        name - The name for this coverage, or null for the same than coverage.
        coverage - The source coverage.

    • Method Detail

      • getName

        public InternationalString getName()
        Returns the coverage name, or null if none. The default implementation returns the name specified at construction time.
        Returns:
        The coverage name, or null.

      • getDimension

        public final int getDimension()
        Returns the dimension of this coverage. This is a shortcut for crs.getCoordinateSystem().getDimension().
        Returns:
        The dimension of this coverage.

      • getCoordinateReferenceSystem

        public CoordinateReferenceSystem getCoordinateReferenceSystem()
        Returns the coordinate reference system to which the objects in its domain are referenced. This is the CRS used when accessing a coverage or grid coverage with the evaluate(...) methods. This coordinate reference system is usually different than coordinate system of the grid. It is the target coordinate reference system of the gridToCRS math transform.

        Grid coverage can be accessed (re-projected) with new coordinate reference system with the GridCoverageProcessor component. In this case, a new instance of a grid coverage is created.

        Specified by:
        getCoordinateReferenceSystem in interface Coverage
        Returns:
        The coordinate reference system used when accessing a coverage or grid coverage with the evaluate(...) methods.

        GeneralGridGeometry.getGridToCRS()

      • getEnvelope

        public Bounds getEnvelope()
        Returns the bounding box for the coverage domain in coordinate reference system coordinates. May be null if this coverage has no associated coordinate reference system. For grid coverages, the grid cells are centered on each grid coordinate. The envelope for a 2-D grid coverage includes the following corner positions. 
          (Minimum row - 0.5, Minimum column - 0.5) for the minimum coordinates
  (Maximum row - 0.5, Maximum column - 0.5) for the maximum coordinates
        The default implementation returns the domain of validity of the CRS, if there is one.
        Specified by:
        getEnvelope in interface Coverage
        Returns:
        The bounding box for the coverage domain in coordinate system coordinates.

      • getRangeType

        public RecordType getRangeType()
        Describes the range of the coverage. It consists of a list of attribute name/data type pairs. A simple list is the most common form of range type, but RecordType can be used recursively to describe more complex structures. The range type for a specific coverage shall be specified in an application schema.

        This method is not yet implemented.

        Specified by:
        getRangeType in interface Coverage
        Returns:
        The coverage range.

      • evaluate

        public Set<Record> evaluate​(Position p,
                            Collection<String> list)
        Returns a set of records of feature attribute values for the specified direct position. The parameter list is a sequence of feature attribute names each of which identifies a field of the range type. If list is null, the operation shall return a value for every field of the range type. Otherwise, it shall return a value for each field included in list. If the direct position passed is not in the domain of the coverage, then an exception is thrown. If the input direct position falls within two or more geometric objects within the domain, the operation shall return records of feature attribute values computed according to the common point rule.

        NOTE: Normally, the operation will return a single record of feature attribute values.

        This method is not yet implemented.

        Specified by:
        evaluate in interface Coverage
        Parameters:
        p - The position where to evaluate.
        list - The field of interest, or null for every fields.
        Returns:
        The feature attributes.

      • dispose

        public boolean dispose​(boolean force)
        Provides a hint that a coverage will no longer be accessed from a reference in user space. This can be used as a hint in situations where waiting for garbage collection would be overly conservative. The results of referencing a coverage after a call to dispose are undefined, except if this method returned false.

        This method can work in a conservative mode or a forced mode, determined by the force argument:

        • If force is false (the recommanded value), this method may process only under some conditions. For example a grid coverage may dispose its planar image only if it has no sinks. This method returns true if it disposed all resources, or false if this method vetoed against the disposal. In the later case, this coverage can still be used.

        • If force is true, then this method processes inconditionnally and returns always true. This is a more risky behavior.

        The conservative mode (force = false) performs its safety checks on a best-effort basis, with no guarantees. Therefore, it would be wrong to write a program that depended on the safety checks for its correctness. In case of doubt about whatever this coverage still in use or not, it is safer to rely on the garbage collector.

        Parameters:
        force - true for forcing an inconditionnal disposal, or false for performing a conservative disposal. The recommanded value is false.
        Returns:
        true if this method disposed at least some resources, or false if this method vetoed against the disposal.
