GeoTiffFormatFactorySpi (Geotools modules 31-SNAPSHOT API)

Object
- GeoTiffFormatFactorySpi

All Implemented Interfaces:

GridFormatFactorySpi, Factory, OptionalFactory
```
public class GeoTiffFormatFactorySpi
extends Object
implements GridFormatFactorySpi
```
The GeoTiffFormatFactorySpi should never be instantiated directly by user code. It is discovered by the GridFormatFinder for automatic discovery. Use the standard Geotools method of discovering a factory in order to create a format.
This format will only report itself to be "available" if the JAI and JAI ImageI/O libraries are available. Otherwise it will be unavailable. If a user attempts to create a new instance of the format when the required libraries are unavailable, an UnsupportedOperationException will be thrown.

    Specified by:
    
    createFormat in interface GridFormatFactorySpi
    
    Returns:
    
    GeoTiffFormat object.
    
    Throws:
    
    UnsupportedOperationException - if this format is unavailable.
  - isAvailable
```
public boolean isAvailable()
```
    Informs the caller whether the libraries required by the GeoTiff reader are installed or not.
    
    Specified by:
    
    isAvailable in interface OptionalFactory
    
    Returns:
    
    availability of the GeoTiff format.
  - getImplementationHints
```
public Map<RenderingHints.Key,?> getImplementationHints()
```
    Returns the implementation hints. The default implementation returns an empty map.
    
    Specified by:
    
    getImplementationHints in interface Factory
    
    Returns:
    
    Empty Map.
