Interesting we now have three pages about coverage support:
a)
http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOTOOLS/Improve+support+of+RGB+coverages
b)
http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOTOOLS/Data+Access+API+for+ISO+Coverage+and+ISO+Feature
c)
http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOTOOLS/CoverageStore+based+on+WCS+Specification
Let me see if I can figure out what is going on...
a) This appears to be new; but I cannot figure out what the view method
is for. help?
b) This page needs to be renamed and focus just on a DataAccess super
class so gabriel can work on a ComplexDataStore. We have talked about
this one in the past ... not sure if/when he is going to do the work?
c) This is the other half of the game; we are sick of Format and
anything to do with Grid Coverage Exchange
So my guess the focus here is on (a) ...
BEFORE:
> class GridCoverage2D {
> GridCoverage2D geophysics(boolean);
> }
AFTER:
> enum ViewType {
> NATIVE, PACKED, RENDERED, GEOPHYSICS, PHOTOGRAPHIC, SAME
> }
>
> class GridCoverage2D {
> GridCoverage2D view(ViewType);
> }
That is a pretty major change; do implementations have an option of
*not* supporting all of the above options? If so how can we tell what
options are supported...
Can we add a default implementation in an Abstract superclass; that
calls the preexisting geophysics method...
