Unigine::Dataset Class
Header: | #include <UnigineDataset.h> |
The Dataset class is used for processing raster and vector data with binding to geo-coordinates. The class uses GDAL API to retrieve data from files.
The class allows for loading such rare raster formats as .dem, .tiff (with information on binding to geo-coordinates), .ecw and vector formats .osm, .shp.
For raster data, geo-coordinates can be obtained per-pixel in the (latitude, longitude) format. Pixel values can be of different formats (R8, R16, R32F for single-channel data; RGB8, RGB16, RGB32F, RGBA8, RGBA16, RGBA32F for multi-channel data).
The following example shows how raster data can be accessed by using methods of the Dataset class:
// AppWorldLogic.cpp
#include <UnigineDataset.h>
#include <UnigineLog.h>
#include <UnigineEngine.h>
#include <UnigineImage.h>
#include <UnigineInterface.h>
int AppWorldLogic::init() {
// create a new dataset
DatasetPtr dataset = Dataset::create();
// load raster data
dataset->load("unigine_project/maps/geo.tif");
// declare images into which raster data obtained from the loaded dataset will be saved
Vector<ImagePtr> raster_data;
// print data on each raster band of the dataset
for (int i = 0; i < dataset->getRasterCount(); i++) {
Log::message("Band: %d\n", i);
Log::message("Type: %s\n", dataset->getRasterTypeName(i));
Log::message("Color: %s\n", dataset->getRasterColorName(i));
ImagePtr image = Image::create();
// create an image of the size and format of the current raster band
image->create2D(dataset->getRasterSizeX(), dataset->getRasterSizeY(), Image::FORMAT_R8);
// read the region of the current raster band into the created image
if (dataset->getRasterImage(i, image) == 0) {
Log::error("Can't import raster band, layer: %d\n", i);
continue;
}
// add the obtained raster data to the array
raster_data.append(image);
}
for (int y = 0; y < dataset->getRasterSizeY(); y += dataset->getRasterSizeY() - 1) {
for (int x = 0; x < dataset->getRasterSizeX(); x += dataset->getRasterSizeX() - 1) {
double latitude = dataset->getLatitude(x, y);
double longitude = dataset->getLongitude(x, y);
Log::message("%4dx%-4d: %f / %f\n", x, y, latitude, longitude);
}
}
return 1;
}
For vector data, the number of primitives, their points and properties can be obtained. You can also triangulate a primitive and save it to a dynamic mesh (see the samples_2/geodetics/dataset_00 sample).
Vector Dataset#
A vector dataset is a set of layers, each of which contains meta-information (field definitions) and data (features).
Field definitions is a set of names that can be associated with the application logic. For example, the name "height" allows assuming that the feature will contain information on heights, so you can make geometry three-dimensional in your application.
Features contain geometry and field values that are associated with field definitions. If a layer of vector dataset contains several features, they will be read from the source successively. The memory contains only the currently read feature that is processed.
Geometry can be simple (a point, line, polygon) and complex (a set of points, lines or polygons). In the Dataset class, working with geometry is similar to working with Unigine mesh: you can get the number of "surfaces" (geometries) and points of one of such "surfaces" (geometries). For the simple geometry, there is a single "surface". For the complex one, there are several "surfaces".
The following example shows how vector data can be accessed by using methods of the Dataset class:
// AppWorldLogic.cpp
#include <UnigineDataset.h>
#include <UnigineLog.h>
#include <UnigineEngine.h>
#include <UnigineInterface.h>
using namespace Unigine;
int AppWorldLogic::init() {
// create a new dataset
DatasetPtr dataset = Dataset::create();
// load vector data
dataset->load("unigine_project/maps/antarctica.shp");
// print information on the dataset layers
for (int i = 0; i < dataset->getVectorCount(); i++) {
Log::message("Layer: %d\n", i);
Log::message("Name: %s\n", dataset->getVectorName(i));
Log::message("Fields: %d\n", dataset->getVectorFieldCount(i));
Log::message("Features:\n");
// print field definitions and its associated values for each feature of the dataset layer
// starting from the first feature
dataset->vectorFeatureReadReset(i);
// obtain the current feature
while (dataset->vectorFeatureReadNext(i)) {
// for each field definition of the current feature
for (int j = 0; j < dataset->getVectorFieldCount(i); j++) {
// get the name
const char *field_name = dataset->getVectorFieldName(i, j);
// get the associated value
Variable field_value = dataset->getVectorFieldValue(i, j);
// print the obtained values
Log::message("\t%s: %s\n", field_name, field_value.getTypeInfo().get());
}
}
}
return 1;
