Description
Method AddNewerRasters Re-crawls all data source paths associated with selected catalog items for newer data sources and adds these new items to the mosaic dataset.
Method AddRasters Adds raster datasets to the mosaic dataset.
Method BuildBoundary Builds the boundary geometry of the mosaic dataset using selected catalog items.
Method BuildFootprints Rebuilds footprint geometry of selected catalog items.
Method BuildSeamlines Builds seamline geometry of selected catalog items.
Method CalculateCellSizeRanges Calculates cell size ranges that control visibility of selected catalog items.
Method ComputeDirtyArea Computes a polygon that defines a region containing mosaic dataset items newer than a specified point in time.
Read-only property DefaultOverviewWorkspace The default workspace for storing overview raster dataset associated with the mosaic dataset.
Method DefineNoData Applies a mask with specified NoData values on selected catalog items.
Method DefineOverviews Defines a new (or refreshes an existing) overview tiling scheme.
Method GenerateOverviews Generates overview images corresponding to selected catalog items.
Method GetCellSizeLevels Returns the cell size levels associated with the specified raster type instance. An 'instanceID' value of -1 indicates a request for cell size levels associated with the mosaic dataset.
Method ImportGeometry Imports external geometry into the mosaic dataset.
Method QuerySpatialIndex Returns the spatial index and grid sizes of the mosaic catalog.
Method RemoveItems Removes selected catalog items.
Method ReplacePaths Replaces paths associated with the raster datasets and the data sources of selected catalog items.
Method ResetSpatialIndex Resets spatial index on the mosaic catalog. Creates a new spatial index if none is found.
Method Search Returns a search cursor with mosaic dataset items matching all specified criteria.
Method Synchronize Rebuilds selected catalog items and synchronizes them with the corresponding data source.
Method UpdateCellSizeLevels Stores the cell size levels associated with the specified raster type instance ID. An 'instanceID' value of -1 indicates that cell size levels associated with the mosaic dataset is being updated.
Method UpdateTimeStamp Updates the time stamp value of selected catalog items.
