IRasterCatalogTable Interface

Provides access to members that control a raster catalog table.

Product Availability

Available with ArcGIS Engine, ArcGIS Desktop, and ArcGIS Server.

Description

A raster catalog is a table in any supported table format (including INFO, dbf, access, text, and others) that contains a list of raster datasets and their geographic extents.

The first five columns of the table must be called "Image", "Xmin", "Ymin", "Xmax", and "YMax" for the table to be identified as a raster catalog. The first column contains the path to a dataset on disk, while the next four contain the bounding box of the dataset. Additional fields in the table are allowed but will have no effect on the display of the raster catalog.

CoClasses that implement IRasterCatalogTable

CoClasses and Classes Description
RasterCatalogTable A special type of table used to display multiple rasters simultaneously.
SdeRasterCatalogTable A class for managing 8.x ArcSDE RasterCatalogs.

Remarks

The IRasterCatalogTable object allows you to access information about a raster catalog including the extent and name for each dataset in the catalog and the number of datasets (Size) and Extent of the entire raster catalog.

You can also provide a table in the correct format to be used as the RasterCatalogTable (The counterpart for 8.x tyle ArcSDE raster catalog is SdeRasterCatalogTable). You must call the Update method after putting a table in the RasterCatalogTable.
