Description

The ISaveAs interface saves a raster or raster dataset to an output raster dataset in one of the supported raster formats.

Method Summary

boolean	canSaveAs(String format) Checks if it's can be saved as a new persistent Dataset of a given format.
IDataset	saveAs(String name, IWorkspace workspace, String format) Creates a new persistent Dataset of a given format.

Method Detail

saveAs

IDataset saveAs(String name,
                IWorkspace workspace,
                String format)
                throws IOException,
                       AutomationException

Creates a new persistent Dataset of a given format.

Remarks

The format strings used for the supported formats are below, and they are case sensitive:

Format Name	String Used
Imagine	"IMAGINE Image"
TIFF	"TIFF"
GRID	"GRID"
JPEG	"JPG"
JP2000	"JP2"
BMP	"BMP"
PNG	"PNG"
GIF	"GIF"
PCI Raster	"PIX"
X11 Pixmap	"XPM"
PCRaster	"MAP"
Memory Raster	"MEM"
HDF4	"HDF4"
BIL	"BIL"
BIP	"BIP"
BSQ	"BSQ"
Idrisi Raster Format	"RST"
ENVI Raster Format	"ENVI"
Geodatabase Raster	"GDB"

Note, SaveAs will return a RasterDataset, to prevent from ISaveAs holding the output, .NET ReleaseCOMObject needs to be called to release the referene to the output raster dataset:

System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.ReleaseComObject(outRasterDS);
