Method Detail

readRaster

public static RasterMap readRaster(String fileName,
                                   int fileFormat,
                                   GISFrame gisFrame)

Reads a text file in the given format and creates a raster map from it.

Parameters:

fileName - Name of file to read.

fileFormat - Type of text file to read (see FileHandler).

gisFrame - GUI in which to report results.

Returns:

Raster map containing read data, or null if problems reading.

writeRaster

public static boolean writeRaster(RasterMap rasterMap,
                                  String fileName,
                                  int fileFormat,
                                  GISFrame gisFrame)

Writes a text file in the given format based on the supplied raster map.

Parameters:

rasterMap - Raster map to write.

fileName - Name of file to create.

fileFormat - Type of text file to create (see FileHandler).

gisFrame - GUI in which to report results.

Returns:

True if written sucessfully.
