Analysis APIs provide analysis operations that can be performed on the Raster. Below are the different Analysis APIs:
- Line Statistics
getLineStatistics: This method returns RasterLineStatistics Object. This object contains statistical information of a line calculated from an already opened Raster. The RasterLineStatistics object includes information like Minimum/Maximum value of the cell, Mean, Median, Mode, Range, Start/End/Middle Value of the cell, etc. - Polygon/Region Statistics
getPolygonStatistics: This method returns the statistics of a given input polygon or region in the form of RasterPolygonStatistics Object from the underlying Raster dataset. The information contained in RasterPolygonStatistics object include Minimum/Maximum Value of the Cell, Mean, Range, Standard Deviation, Coefficient of Variance etc. - Cross Section Information
getCrossSectionInfo: This method samples an already opened Raster Dataset along a series of points specified by line or polyline and returns information about each sample point. Output of this method is a list of RasterCrossSectionInfo Objects that has cross section data as statistics computed from the Raster. The cross-section statistics include X/Y coordinates of the sample point, distance, point status, etc. Status of a point in the cross section can either be VALID, OFF_GRID or NULL. - Cell Value
getCellValue: This is a function to get the valid Cell Value at Grid Coordinates cellX and cellY in the form of a CellValue Object. Cell Value could be Number or String depending upon Raster band. It also contains information about the Status of the CellValue object whether it is VALID, NO_DATA, OUT_OF_BOUNDS or ERROR.
