GeoTiffContent

enum GeoTiffContent : Enum<GeoTiffContent>

What a GeoTIFF's pixels are meant to be — a picture to drape, or a height field to build terrain from.

GeoTIFF describes pixel layout, not meaning: no tag declares "this raster is terrain", so the answer is inferred from band count, colour model, sample format and the vertical CRS. That inference is decisive for almost every real file, and AMBIGUOUS marks the one combination that genuinely is not decidable from the header.

Entries

IMAGERY

A picture: RGB(A), palette, or a grayscale / panchromatic image.

ELEVATION

A height field: one band of continuous values.

AMBIGUOUS

One unsigned integer band whose header fits both readings — terrain in metres and 12-bit sensor counts both live inside 0..4095. GeoTiffDataset.probeContent settles the cases it can from the pixels; when it cannot, ask rather than guess.

Properties

entries

val entries: EnumEntries<GeoTiffContent>

Returns a representation of an immutable list of all enum entries, in the order they're declared.

name

expect val name: String

ordinal

expect val ordinal: Int

Functions

valueOf

fun valueOf(value: String): GeoTiffContent

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

values

fun values(): Array<GeoTiffContent>

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they're declared.
