ArcObjects Library Reference (DataSourcesRaster)

RasterBand Class

A representation of a single band of a raster dataset on disk.

RasterBand is a non-creatable object. References to non-creatable objects must be obtained through other objects.

Product Availability

Available with ArcGIS Engine, ArcGIS Desktop, and ArcGIS Server.

Description

The RasterBand object represents an existing band of a raster dataset. This band may be the only band in a single raster dataset or one band in a multiband raster dataset.

A RasterBand can be obtained from a RasterDataset or a Raster using IRasterBandCollection::Item.

Supported Platforms

Windows, Solaris, Linux

Extended Error Information

Use the ISupportErrorInfo method InterfaceSupportsErrorInfo to determine if the object supports extended error information. If the object supports extended error info, VC++ developers should use the OLE/COM IErrorInfo interface to access the ErrorInfo object. Visual Basic developers should use the global error object Err to retrieve this extended error information.
