Function Description

In Order to reduce the time consumption of importing and Export raster files through UDB/udbx file Datasource, iDesktopX expands the loading and output modes of image/Raster File (including TIF, IMG, etc.) For processing and analysis. It supports direct reading, analysis, processing and writing of Original Image/Raster Data, and effectively improves the speed of image/Raster Data opening, browsing and analysis, bringing great convenience to your business applications.

At present, we provide two methods for you to use conveniently in different scenarios:

Open TIF data directly in WorkspaceData source

We call this kind of Datasource ImagePlugins (Raster File) Datasource, It can be opened through Data Import or by dragging (directly drag Raster File from the folder to Workspace Manager). When using image/raster processing and analysis tools, the data window will automatically recognize the Datasource. Further, image/raster processing and analysis can be performed directly.

This method is more simple and easy to use in single processing of data, and the output results can be easily viewed in time.

Geo-Processing Automation (GPA) (GPA) Modeling

GPA modeling is recommended when multiple processing steps need to be executed continuously or Raster File needs to be written directly, which can automate the processing flow, reduce complicated operations, and avoid the dependency on UDB/udbx.

The usage of GPA modeling is shown in the figure below, and the tools in series are:

• Open Data Set: used to read the original Raster File, and the example of filling in Connection Info is as follows:

  --providerType=sdx --server=E:\data\dem.tif --dataset=dem --dbType=ImagePlugins

• Create Data source: It is used to write out the result Raster File, and the filling example of Connection Info is as follows:

  --providerType=sdx --server=E:\data\result.tif --dbType=ImagePlugins
