Examples of GridSampleDimension

• org.geotools.coverage.GridSampleDimension
  Describes the data values for a coverage as a list of {@linkplain Category categories}. For a grid coverage a sample dimension is a band. Sample values in a band may be organized in categories. This {@code GridSampleDimension} implementation is capable to differenciatequalitative and quantitative categories. For example an image of sea surface temperature (SST) could very well defines the following categories:

   [0]       : no data [1]       : cloud [2]       : land [10..210] : temperature to be converted into Celsius degrees through a linear equation 

  In this example, sample values in range {@code [10..210]} defines a quantitative category,while all others categories are qualitative. The difference between those two kinds of category is that the {@link Category#getSampleToGeophysics} method returns a non-null transform if andonly if the category is quantitative.

  While this class can be used with arbitrary {@linkplain org.opengis.coverage.Coverage coverage}, the primary target for this implementation is {@linkplain org.opengis.coverage.grid.GridCoverage grid coverage} storing their sample values as integers. This explain the "{@code Grid}" prefix in the class name. @since 2.1 @source $URL$ @version $Id$ @author Martin Desruisseaux (IRD)
