| RasterSdeLoader | A mechanism to control creation of SDE Raster datasets and load raster data. | 
There are three ways to specify a connection to a geodatabase: a WorkspaceName object, a GxDatabase, or the connection properties for the database.
The SdeConnection property allows you to specify a GxDatabase object, which can be retrieved from ArcCatalog containing the connection properties.
The SdeWorkspaceName property lets you specify the connection using a WorkspaceName object that contains the connection information.
To connect without using a WorkspaceName or GxDatabase object, the ServerName, Instance, UserName, Password and Database properties must be specified.
Connection to an ArcSDE geodatabase, InputRasterName and SdeRasterName are required for loading rasters.
