Constructor Detail

Slope

public Slope()
Creates the Slope tool with defaults.

Initializes the array of tool parameters with the default values specified when the tool was created.


Slope

public Slope(java.lang.Object inRaster,
             java.lang.Object outRaster)
Creates the Slope tool with the required parameters.

Initializes the array of tool parameters with the values as specified for the required parameters and with the default values for the other parameters.

Parameters:
inRaster - the input surface raster.
outRaster - the output slope raster.
Method Detail

getInRaster

public java.lang.Object getInRaster()
Returns the Input raster parameter of this tool . This parameter is the input surface raster. This is a required parameter.

Returns:
the Input raster

setInRaster

public void setInRaster(java.lang.Object inRaster)
Sets the Input raster parameter of this tool . This parameter is the input surface raster. This is a required parameter.

Parameters:
inRaster - the input surface raster.

getOutRaster

public java.lang.Object getOutRaster()
Returns the Output raster parameter of this tool . This parameter is the output slope raster. This is a required parameter.

Returns:
the Output raster

setOutRaster

public void setOutRaster(java.lang.Object outRaster)
Sets the Output raster parameter of this tool . This parameter is the output slope raster. This is a required parameter.

Parameters:
outRaster - the output slope raster.

getOutputMeasurement

public java.lang.String getOutputMeasurement()
Returns the Output measurement parameter of this tool . This parameter is determines the measurement units (degrees or percentages) of the output slope data. This is an optional parameter.

Returns:
the Output measurement

setOutputMeasurement

public void setOutputMeasurement(java.lang.String outputMeasurement)
Sets the Output measurement parameter of this tool . This parameter is determines the measurement units (degrees or percentages) of the output slope data. This is an optional parameter.

Parameters:
outputMeasurement - determines the measurement units (degrees or percentages) of the output slope data.

getZFactor

public double getZFactor()
Returns the Z factor parameter of this tool . This parameter is number of ground x,y units in one surface z unit. the z-factor adjusts the units of measure for the z units when they are different from the x,y units of the input surface. The z-values of the input surface are multiplied by the z-factor when calculating the final output surface. if the x,y units and z units are in the same units of measure, the z-factor is 1. This is the default. if the x,y units and z units are in different units of measure, the z-factor must be set to the appropriate factor, or the results will be incorrect. For example, if your z units are feet and your x,y units are meters, you would use a z-factor of 0.3048 to convert your z units from feet to meters (1 foot = 0.3048 meter). This is an optional parameter.

Returns:
the Z factor

setZFactor

public void setZFactor(double zFactor)
Sets the Z factor parameter of this tool . This parameter is number of ground x,y units in one surface z unit. the z-factor adjusts the units of measure for the z units when they are different from the x,y units of the input surface. The z-values of the input surface are multiplied by the z-factor when calculating the final output surface. if the x,y units and z units are in the same units of measure, the z-factor is 1. This is the default. if the x,y units and z units are in different units of measure, the z-factor must be set to the appropriate factor, or the results will be incorrect. For example, if your z units are feet and your x,y units are meters, you would use a z-factor of 0.3048 to convert your z units from feet to meters (1 foot = 0.3048 meter). This is an optional parameter.

Parameters:
zFactor - number of ground x,y units in one surface z unit. the z-factor adjusts the units of measure for the z units when they are different from the x,y units of the input surface. The z-values of the input surface are multiplied by the z-factor when calculating the final output surface. if the x,y units and z units are in the same units of measure, the z-factor is 1. This is the default. if the x,y units and z units are in different units of measure, the z-factor must be set to the appropriate factor, or the results will be incorrect. For example, if your z units are feet and your x,y units are meters, you would use a z-factor of 0.3048 to convert your z units from feet to meters (1 foot = 0.3048 meter).
