GDALRasterAttributeTable class

class GDALRasterAttributeTable

The GDALRasterAttributeTable (or RAT) class is used to encapsulate a table used to provide attribute information about pixel values.

Each row in the table applies to a range of pixel values (or a single value in some cases), and might have attributes such as the histogram count for that range, the color pixels of that range should be drawn names of classes or any other generic information.

Raster attribute tables can be used to represent histograms, color tables, and classification information.

Each column in a raster attribute table has a name, a type (integer, floating point, string, boolean, date time, geometries encoded as WKB), and a GDALRATFieldUsage. The usage distinguishes columns with particular understood purposes (such as color, histogram count, name) and columns that have specific purposes not understood by the library (long label, suitability_for_growing_wheat, etc).

In the general case each row has a column indicating the minimum pixel values falling into that category, and a column indicating the maximum pixel value. These are indicated with usage values of GFU_Min, and GFU_Max. In other cases where each row is a discrete pixel value, one column of usage GFU_MinMax can be used.

In other cases all the categories are of equal size and regularly spaced and the categorization information can be determined just by knowing the value at which the categories start, and the size of a category. This is called "Linear Binning" and the information is kept specially on the raster attribute table as a whole.

RATs are normally associated with GDALRasterBands and can be queried using the GDALRasterBand::GetDefaultRAT() method.

Public Functions

virtual GDALRasterAttributeTable *Clone() const = 0

Parameters:

The raster attribute table must be empty before calling InitializeFromColorTable().

The Value fields are set based on the implicit assumption with color tables that entry 0 applies to pixel value 0, 1 to 1, etc.

The indicated field (column) on the indicated row is set from the passed value. Besides being called on a field of type GFT_DateTime, this method can also be called on a field of type GFT_String, in which case the datetime will be converted into its ISO-8601 representation.

Note that the GDALRATDateTime::bIsValid field must be set to true if the date time is valid.

This method is the same as the C function GDALRATSetValueAsDateTime().

Since

3.12

Parameters:
  • iRow -- row to fetch (zero based).

  • iField -- column to fetch (zero based).

  • sDateTime -- Date time value

Returns:

CE_None in case of success, error code otherwise

virtual CPLErr SetValue(int iRow, int iField, const void *pabyWKB, size_t nWKBSize) override

Set field value from a WKB geometry.

The indicated field (column) on the indicated row is set from the passed value. Besides being called on a field of type GFT_WKBGeometry, this method can also be called on a field of type GFT_String, in which case the datetime will be converted into its WKT geometry representation.

This method is the same as the C function GDALRATSetValueAsWKBGeometry().

Since

3.12

Parameters:
  • iRow -- row to fetch (zero based).

  • iField -- column to fetch (zero based).

  • pabyWKB -- Pointer to a WKB encoded geometry

  • nWKBSize -- Number of bytes of pabyWKB.

Returns:

CE_None in case of success, error code otherwise

virtual int ChangesAreWrittenToFile() override

Determine whether changes made to this RAT are reflected directly in the dataset.

If this returns FALSE then GDALRasterBand.SetDefaultRAT() should be called. Otherwise this is unnecessary since changes to this object are reflected in the dataset.

This method is the same as the C function GDALRATChangesAreWrittenToFile().

virtual void SetRowCount(int iCount) override

Set row count.

Parameters:

nNewCount -- new count.

virtual int GetRowOfValue(double dfValue) const override

Get row for pixel value.

Given a raw pixel value, the raster attribute table is scanned to determine which row in the table applies to the pixel value. The row index is returned.

This method is the same as the C function GDALRATGetRowOfValue().

Parameters:

dfValue -- the pixel value.

Returns:

the row index or -1 if no row is appropriate.

virtual int GetRowOfValue(int nValue) const override

Get row for pixel value.

Given a raw pixel value, the raster attribute table is scanned to determine which row in the table applies to the pixel value. The row index is returned.

Int arg for now just converted to double. Perhaps we will handle this in a special way some day?

This method is the same as the C function GDALRATGetRowOfValue().

Parameters:

nValue -- the pixel value.

Returns:

the row index or -1 if no row is appropriate.

virtual CPLErr CreateColumn(const char *pszFieldName, GDALRATFieldType eFieldType, GDALRATFieldUsage eFieldUsage) override

If the table already has rows, all row values for the new column will be initialized to the default value ("", or zero).

The new column is always created as the last column, and will be column (field) "GetColumnCount()-1" after CreateColumn() has completed successfully.

This method is the same as the C function GDALRATCreateColumn().

Parameters:
  • pszFieldName -- the name of the field to create.

  • eFieldType -- the field type (integer, double or string).

  • eFieldUsage -- the field usage, GFU_Generic if not known.

Returns:

CE_None on success or CE_Failure if something goes wrong.

virtual CPLErr SetLinearBinning(double dfRow0Min, double dfBinSize) override

Set linear binning information.

For RATs with equal sized categories (in pixel value space) that are evenly spaced, this method may be used to associate the linear binning information with the table.

This method is the same as the C function GDALRATSetLinearBinning().

Parameters:
  • dfRow0MinIn -- the lower bound (pixel value) of the first category.

  • dfBinSizeIn -- the width of each category (in pixel value units).

Returns:

CE_None on success or CE_Failure on failure.

virtual int GetLinearBinning(double *pdfRow0Min, double *pdfBinSize) const override

Get linear binning information.

Returns linear binning information if any is associated with the RAT.

This method is the same as the C function GDALRATGetLinearBinning().

Parameters:
  • pdfRow0Min -- (out) the lower bound (pixel value) of the first category.

  • pdfBinSize -- (out) the width of each category (in pixel value units).

Returns:

TRUE if linear binning information exists or FALSE if there is none.

virtual CPLErr SetTableType(const GDALRATTableType eInTableType) override

Set RAT Table Type.

Set whether table type is thematic or athematic

This method is the same as the C function GDALRATSetTableType().

Parameters:

eInTableType -- the new RAT table type (GRTT_THEMATIC or GRTT_ATHEMATIC)

Returns:

CE_None on success or CE_Failure on failure.

virtual GDALRATTableType GetTableType() const override

Get RAT Table Type.

Returns whether table type is thematic or athematic

This method is the same as the C function GDALRATGetTableType().

Returns:

GRTT_THEMATIC or GRTT_ATHEMATIC

virtual void RemoveStatistics() override

Remove Statistics from RAT.

Remove statistics (such as histogram) from the RAT. This is important if these have been invalidated, for example by cropping the image.

This method is the same as the C function GDALRATRemoveStatistics().
