grass.pygrass.raster package

class grass.pygrass.raster.RasterRow(name, mapset='', *args, **kargs)

Bases: grass.pygrass.raster.abstract.RasterAbstractBase

Raster_row_access”: Inherits: “Raster_abstract_base” and implements the default row access of the Rast library.

• Implements row access using row id

• The get_row() method must accept a Row object as argument that will be used for value storage, so no new buffer will be allocated

• Implements sequential writing of rows

• Implements indexed value read only access using the [row][col] operator

• Implements the [row] read method that returns a new Row object

• Writing is limited using the put_row() method which accepts a Row as argument

• No mathematical operation like __add__ and stuff for the Raster object (only for rows), since r.mapcalc is more sophisticated and faster

• Raises IndexError if [row] is out of range

Examples:

>>> elev = RasterRow(test_raster_name)
>>> elev.exist()
True
>>> elev.is_open()
False
>>> elev.open()
>>> elev.is_open()
True
>>> elev.has_cats()
True
>>> elev.mode
'r'
>>> elev.mtype
'CELL'
>>> elev.num_cats()
16
>>> elev.info.range
(11, 44)
>>> elev.info.cols
4
>>> elev.info.rows
4

Editing the history

>>> elev.hist.read()
>>> elev.hist.title = "A test map"
>>> elev.hist.write()
>>> elev.hist.title
'A test map'
>>> elev.hist.keyword
'This is a test map'

>>> attrs = list(elev.hist)
>>> attrs[0]
('name', 'Raster_test_map')
>>> attrs[2]
('mtype', '')

Each Raster map have an attribute call cats that allow user to interact with the raster categories.

>>> elev.cats          
[('A', 11, None),
 ('B', 12, None),
...
 ('P', 44, None)]

>>> elev.cats.labels() 
['A', 'B', 'C', 'D', 'E',
 'F', 'G', 'H', 'I', 'J',
 'K', 'L', 'M', 'n', 'O', 'P']
>>> elev.cats[0]
('A', 11, None)
>>> elev.cats[2]
('C', 13, None)
>>> elev.cats[0] = ('AA', 11)
>>> elev.cats[1] = ('BB', 12)
>>> elev.cats.write()
>>> elev.cats.read()
>>> elev.cats[0]
('AA', 11, None)
>>> elev.cats[1]
('BB', 12, None)

grass.pygrass.raster.category module

Created on Thu Jun 28 17:44:14 2012

@author: pietro

class grass.pygrass.raster.category.Category(name, mapset='', mtype='CELL', *args, **kargs)

Bases: list

I would like to add the following functions:

Getting the umber of cats: Rast_number_of_cats() <- Important for ith access

Getting and setting the title: Rast_get_cats_title() Rast_set_cats_title()

Do not use these functions for category access: Rast_get_cat() and the specialized types for CELL, FCELL and DCELL. Since these functions are working on hidden static buffer.

Use the ith-get methods: Rast_get_ith_c_cat() Rast_get_ith_f_cat() Rast_get_ith_d_cat()

This can be implemented using an iterator too. So that the category object provides the [] access operator to the categories, returning a tuple (label, min, max). Using this, the category object must be aware of its raster map type.

Set categories using: Rast_set_c_cat() Rast_set_f_cat() Rast_set_d_cat()

Misc: Rast_sort_cats() Rast_copy_cats() <- This should be wrapped so that categories from an existing Python category class are copied.

copy(category)

Copy from another Category class

Parameters

category (Category object) – Category class to be copied

get_cat(index)

labels()

property mtype

Set or obtain raster data type

ncats()

read()

Read categories from a raster map

The category file for raster map name in mapset is read into the cats structure. If there is an error reading the category file, a diagnostic message is printed.

int Rast_read_cats(const char * name,

const char * mapset, struct Categories * pcats )

read_rules(filename, sep=':')

Copy categories from a rules file, default separator is ‘:’, the columns must be: min and/or max and label.

1:forest
2:road
3:urban

0.:0.5:forest
0.5:1.0:road
1.0:1.5:urban

set_cat(index, value)

set_cats_fmt(fmt, m1, a1, m2, a2)

Not implemented yet. void Rast_set_cats_fmt()

sort()

Sort the list in ascending order and return None.

The sort is in-place (i.e. the list itself is modified) and stable (i.e. the order of two equal elements is maintained).

If a key function is given, apply it once to each list item and sort them, ascending or descending, according to their function values.

The reverse flag can be set to sort in descending order.

property title

Set or obtain raster title

write()

Writes the category file for the raster map name in the current

mapset from the cats structure.

void Rast_write_cats(const char * name,
