ST_RasterUtil.describe

Definition

ST_RasterUtil.describe returns the description of raster column properties. If no arguments or only the verbose parameter is provided, the ST_RasterUtil.describe stored procedure returns a list of all raster columns within the database. Otherwise, the description of the raster column is returned if a table and column is entered.

Example

The following example returns the description of raster column sat.image:

Oracle

SELECT sde.ST_RasterUtil.descibe('sat','image')
FROM dual;

Raster Column ID ............: 125
Table Name ..................: SAT
Raster Column ...............: IMAGE
Storage Type ................: ST_RASTER
Configuration Keyword .......: DEFAULTS
Coordinate System ...........: 4326
Permission ..................: Full
Created .....................: Mon Apr 14 14:49:24 2008

PostgreSQL

SELECT sde.st_raster_util_describe('sat','image');

Raster Column ID ............: 125
Table Name ..................: SAT
Raster Column ...............: IMAGE
Storage Type ................: ST_RASTER
Configuration Keyword .......: DEFAULTS
Coordinate System ...........: 4326
Permission ..................: Full
Created .....................: Mon Apr 14 14:49:24 2008

SQL Server

SELECT <function_owner>.st_raster_util_describe 
('sde94','bobby', 'sat','image',null);

Raster Column ID ............: 125
Database ....................: SDE94
Owner .......................: BOBBY
Table Name ..................: SAT
Raster Column ...............: IMAGE
Storage Type ................: ST_RASTER
Configuration Keyword .......: DEFAULTS
Coordinate System ...........: 4326
Permission ..................: Full
Created .....................: Mon Apr 14 14:49:24 2008

The function owner is either sde or dbo, depending on the schema where the geodatabase system tables, functions and procedures are stored.
