Method Detail

getName

String getName()

Returns the name of this coverage. The name of the coverage must be unique within the containing tileset.

Returns:

the name of this coverage

getCoverageType

ILcdEarthTileSetCoverage.CoverageType getCoverageType()

Returns the type of the data contained in this coverage (elevation, imagery or geometry).

Returns:

the coverage type of this coverage

getNativeFormat

TLcdEarthTileFormat getNativeFormat()

Returns the format in which data can be obtained from this coverage. All ALcdEarthTile objects retrieved from this coverage will return an instance of TLcdEarthTileFormat.getFormatClass() from their getData() method.

Returns:

the data exchange format of this coverage

getNativeGeoReference

ILcdGeoReference getNativeGeoReference()

Returns the reference in which the coverage's data is natively represented. Where applicable, this will usually be the reference in which the data is stored on disk.

Returns:

the reference in which the data is natively represented
