Class: ImageSpatialReference

esri.ImageSpatialReference

Description

(Added at v3.14)

Defines the Image Coordinate System (ICS) for ImageServices. An ICS defines the spatial reference in terms of a primary image. A primary image displayed in its own image coordinate system exhibits no distortions; other images and features can be projected to overlap with the primary image using its image coordinate system.

Many imagery-centric workflows require displaying images in image coordinate systems instead of map coordinates (geographic or projected coordinate systems); for example, oblique images are distorted significantly when displayed in map coordinates but can be displayed nicely in a top-up view without distortions.

Constructor Details

new esri.ImageSpatialReference(params)

Creates an instance of ImageSpatialReference.
Parameters:
<Object> params Required Options that may be passed into the constructor. See the object specification table below.
params properties:
<Object> ics Optional The full Image Coordinate System object, which includes transformations and map spatial reference information specific to each image. If this option isn't specified, then icsid must be specified.
<Number> icsid Optional The OBJECTID of the image in a mosaic dataset. If this option isn't specified, then ics must be specified.
<String> url Required The url of the image service.
Property Details

<Object> ics

The full Image Coordinate System, which includes transformations and map spatial reference information specific to each image.

<Number> icsid

The OBJECTID of the image in a mosaic dataset.

<Number> wkid

The well-known ID of a spatial reference. See Projected Coordinate Systems and Geographic Coordinate Systems for the list of supported spatial references.

<String> wkt

The well-known text that defines a spatial reference.
Method Details

equals(inSR, sr)

Tests whether the input image coordinate system equals the image coordinate system of the instance calling this method.
Return type: Boolean
Parameters:
<ImageSpatialReference> inSR Required The ImageSpatialReference to test the equality against this instance.
<SpatialReference> sr Required The spatial reference to compare. 

isWebMercator()

Returns true if the wkid of the spatial reference object is one of the following values: 102113, 102100, 3857. (Added at v3.3)
Return type: Boolean
Sample:
var sr = new esri.SpatialReference(102100);
console.log(sr.isWebMercator()); // true

toJson(preserveUrl?)

Converts the ImageSpatialReference instance to a JSON object.
Return type: Boolean
Parameters:
<Boolean> preserveUrl Optional Indicates whether to preserve the URL in the output JSON object.
