How to create a Pansharpen function dataset

Creating a Pansharpen function dataset

1. Create the Function Arguments object.
2. Specify the panchromatic and multispectral inputs.
3. Specify the pansharpening type.
4. Specify the pansharpening weights if needed. Pansharpening weights can be specified as arrays of double values.
5. Create a Raster Function object for the pansharpening function.
6. Create a Function Raster Dataset object.
7. Create a name object for the function raster dataset.
8. Specify the output file name for the new dataset.
9. Initialize the new function raster dataset with the raster function and its arguments.

[C#]

// Create the Function Arguments object.
IPansharpeningFunctionArguments rasterFunctionArguments=new
    PansharpeningFunctionArgumentsClass();
// Specify the panchromatic and multispectral inputs.
// The input data can be of type IRasterDataset, IRasterBand, or IRaster.
rasterFunctionArguments.PanImage=inpDataPan;
rasterFunctionArguments.MSImage=inpDataMS;
// Specify the pansharpening type (IHS in this case).
rasterFunctionArguments.PansharpeningType =
    esriPansharpeningType.esriPansharpeningIHS;
// Pansharpening weights can be specified as arrays of double values.
IDoubleArray weightsArray=new DoubleArrayClass();
weightsArray.Add(0.166);
weightsArray.Add(0.167);
weightsArray.Add(0.166);
weightsArray.Add(0.5);
rasterFunctionArguments.Weights=weightsArray;
// Create the Raster Function object.
IRasterFunction rasterFunction=new PansharpeningFunction();
// Create the Function Raster Dataset object.
IFunctionRasterDataset functionRasterDataset=new FunctionRasterDataset();
// Create a name object for the Function Raster Dataset.
IFunctionRasterDatasetName functionRasterDatasetName=(IFunctionRasterDatasetName)
    new FunctionRasterDatasetName();
// Specify the output file name for the new dataset (including the .afr extension at the end).
functionRasterDatasetName.FullName=@"c:\temp\Pansharpen.afr";
functionRasterDataset.FullName=(IName)functionRasterDatasetName;
// Initialize the new Function Raster Dataset with the Raster Function and its arguments.
functionRasterDataset.Init(rasterFunction, rasterFunctionArguments);
