Re: [Geotools-devel] vector to raster to vector

2009-07-01 Thread Michael Bedward
A brief update for the list and Steve... I've proposed to merge the process module working branch into trunk. This will provide vector to raster conversion for users with the constraint that generated coverages have to fit into memory. I've begun building a disk-based tile cache for the

Hi Simone Mmmmhh, I am not sure that would make any difference, at least if you are planning on using the default TiledImage since it simply keep a hard reference to all its tiles, locking them in memory. If you want to support something different you'd need to implement a different thing,

I know at least one implementation of FileBasedTileCache, I need to clarify a bit the licensing issues. If you are interested I can purse that. Otherwise we can build our own. Simone. --- Ing. Simone Giannecchini GeoSolutions S.A.S. Owner -

Would that be the one in this project ? http://code.google.com/p/mobile-trail-explorer/ If so it's GPL.  But a quick look at the code there suggests it's not a big job to make such a class from scratch.  Perhaps a DiskTileCache class for jai-tools class :-) Michael

I have finally got the vector to raster code into the process module. The new code is still on the 2.6.x_Process branch at the moment. The relevant package is here: http://svn.osgeo.org/geotools/branches/2.6.x_Process/modules/unsupported/process/src/main/java/org/geotools/process/raster/ Steve:

That sounds fine; Michael when you add this code to the module can you make a note of the pulic domain code in the review atp document? Jody On Wed, May 27, 2009 at 5:48 AM, Steve Ansari steve.ans...@noaa.gov wrote: Hi Michael, I had to run this through the NOAA channels and there was some

Hello folks, Somewhere back in this thread I mentioned contacting Steve Ansari about some nice vector to raster code that he posted on the user list last year. Steve is happy for this code to go into the library (Jody suggested it join the raster to vector code in the process module) so I pointed

Yes, I guess was thinking of something similar to the DataUtilities class but I'm fine about doing it another way - whatever works best is best. Regarding the process module - yes, it is cumbersome for hands on use. I must admit that I've bypassed it when I've used the raster to vector function

Yes I am ... I think we proposed a naming convention right from the get go. By convention we could make the process available using a static method to help with test cases and direct from Java use. // how about this? features = RasterToVector.process(raster, band, outsideValues, monitor);

Can we make the code more useful where it is? In the process module The process interface is useful for advertising functionality to dynamic applications; but not so friendly for hands on java hacking. For a utility class there are actually a couple of ways to do it; would you want to just
