IRasterDataset2 Interface

Provides access to members that control a raster dataset.

Members

	Name	Description
	BasicOpenFromFile	Opens the dataset from file.
	CanCopy	Returns true if this dataset can be copied.
	CompleteName	The full path of the RasterDataset.
	CompressionType	The compression technique applied to this RasterDataset.
	Copy	Copies this dataset to a new dataset with the specified name.
	CreateDefaultRaster	Creates a raster object with the default properties for this dataset.
	CreateFullRaster	Creates a raster containing all bands in this raster dataset.
	CreateRaster	Creates an empty raster.
	Format	The format of this RasterRataset.
	IsEmpty	Indicates whether the raster dataset is empty.
	OpenFromFile	Attaches dataset to a particular file.
	PrecalculateStats	Calculates statistics and histograms for specified bands.
	SensorType	The sensor type used for this RasterDataset.

IRasterDataset2.CreateFullRaster Method

Creates a raster containing all bands in this raster dataset.

Public Function CreateFullRaster ( _
) As IRaster

public IRaster CreateFullRaster (
);

IRasterDataset2.CreateRaster Method

Creates an empty raster.

Public Function CreateRaster ( _
) As IRaster

public IRaster CreateRaster (
);

Remarks

An empty raster means that properties of the Raster are not defined. The width, height, and the number of bands of the raster are all 0. It can not be used before populating pixels to it.

IRasterDataset2.IsEmpty Property

Indicates whether the raster dataset is empty.

Public ReadOnly Property IsEmpty As Boolean

public bool IsEmpty {get;}

Remarks

An empty raster means that properties of the Raster are not defined. The width, height, and the number of bands of the raster are all 0. It can not be used before populating pixels to it.

Co-create a Raster and IRasterDataset2::CreateRaster create an empty raster.

IRasterBandCollection::AppendBands or AppendBand allows you to populate this raster.
