All Implemented Interfaces:

GPTool

public class RasterToGeodatabase
extends AbstractGPTool

Loads multiple raster datasets into a geodatabase or raster catalog. The Raster To Geodatabase (multiple) tool is contained in the Conversion Tools tool box.

Usage tips:

• The output is the location of the geodatabase where you will store the raster.
• All raster datasets loaded into an unmanaged raster catalog must be a file on disk. Geodatabase raster datasets can only be loaded into raster catalogs that are managed.
• When converting the raster dataset to a personal geodatabase (.mdb), the raster dataset is stored on the file system in a hidden folder. This prevents you from going over the 2 GB limit that is imposed on a personal geodatabase; the actual raster dataset is saved as an ERDAS IMAGINE file.
• If this tool is used to load raster datasets into a raster catalog, then the will need to be run after the loading is completed..
• When converting the raster dataset to an ArcSDE geodatabase, the raster dataset is stored on the ArcSDE server as a raster SDE format. A configuration keyword can be specified (if configuration keywords are specified by the ArcSDE administrator).
• The Cellsize and Mask parameters are ignored by this tool.

Constructor Detail

RasterToGeodatabase

public RasterToGeodatabase()

Creates the Raster To Geodatabase (multiple) tool with defaults.

Initializes the array of tool parameters with the default values specified when the tool was created.

RasterToGeodatabase

public RasterToGeodatabase(Object inputRasters,
                           Object outputGeodatabase)

Creates the Raster To Geodatabase (multiple) tool with the required parameters.

Initializes the array of tool parameters with the values as specified for the required parameters and with the default values for the other parameters.

Parameters:

inputRasters - input raster dataset(s).

outputGeodatabase - either the path and name of a geodatabase or the path and name of a raster catalog.

Method Detail

getInputRasters

public Object getInputRasters()

Returns the Input Rasters parameter of this tool . This parameter is input raster dataset(s). This is a required parameter.

Returns:

the Input Rasters

setInputRasters

public void setInputRasters(Object inputRasters)

Sets the Input Rasters parameter of this tool . This parameter is input raster dataset(s). This is a required parameter.

Parameters:

inputRasters - input raster dataset(s).

getOutputGeodatabase

public Object getOutputGeodatabase()

Returns the Output Geodatabase parameter of this tool . This parameter is either the path and name of a geodatabase or the path and name of a raster catalog. This is a required parameter.

Returns:

the Output Geodatabase

setOutputGeodatabase

public void setOutputGeodatabase(Object outputGeodatabase)

Sets the Output Geodatabase parameter of this tool . This parameter is either the path and name of a geodatabase or the path and name of a raster catalog. This is a required parameter.

Parameters:

outputGeodatabase - either the path and name of a geodatabase or the path and name of a raster catalog.

getConfigurationKeyword

public String getConfigurationKeyword()

Returns the Configuration Keyword parameter of this tool . This parameter is specifies the storage parameters (configuration) for a file geodatabase and an ArcSDE geodatabase. Personal geodatabases do not use configuration keywords. arcSDE configuration keywords are set up by your database administrator. This is an optional parameter.

Returns:

the Configuration Keyword

setConfigurationKeyword

public void setConfigurationKeyword(String configurationKeyword)

Sets the Configuration Keyword parameter of this tool . This parameter is specifies the storage parameters (configuration) for a file geodatabase and an ArcSDE geodatabase. Personal geodatabases do not use configuration keywords. arcSDE configuration keywords are set up by your database administrator. This is an optional parameter.

Parameters:

configurationKeyword - specifies the storage parameters (configuration) for a file geodatabase and an ArcSDE geodatabase. Personal geodatabases do not use configuration keywords. arcSDE configuration keywords are set up by your database administrator.

Returns the Derived Geodatabase parameter of this tool (Read only). This is an derived parameter.

Returns:

the Derived Geodatabase

getToolName

public String getToolName()

Returns the name of this tool.

Returns:

the tool name

getToolboxName

public String getToolboxName()

Returns the name of the tool box containing this tool.

Returns:

the tool box name

getToolboxAlias
