ENVIRPCRasterSpatialRef::ConvertFileToLonLat

The ConvertFileToLonLat method converts a set of pixel (x,y) coordinates in a Rational Polynomial Coefficient (RPC) spatial reference to a set of geographic latitude and longitude coordinates within the same spatial reference.

Example

See the example for ENVIStandardRasterSpatialRef::ConvertFileToLonLat. That example shows the pattern of using the ConvertFileToLonLat method, only you would replace the standard spatial reference with an RPC spatial reference.

Syntax

ENVIRPCRasterSpatialRef.ConvertFileToLonLat, FileX, FileY, Lon, Lat

Arguments

FileX

The file X-coordinate. You can specify a scalar or a vector of FileX values; if it is a vector, the FileY argument should also be a vector with the same number of elements:

File1X = [688.0, 641.1]

File1Y = [301.0, 280.0]

FileY

The file Y-coordinate

Lon

A named variable that will contain the geographic longitude

Lat

A named variable that will contain the geographic latitude

Keywords

ERROR

Set this keyword to a named variable that will contain any error message issued during execution of this routine. If no error occurs, the ERROR variable will be set to a null string (''). If an error occurs and the routine is a function, then the function result will be undefined.

When this keyword is not set and an error occurs, ENVI returns to the caller and execution halts. In this case, the error message is contained within !ERROR_STATE and can be caught using IDL's CATCH routine. See IDL Help for more information on !ERROR_STATE and CATCH.

See Manage Errors for more information on error handling in ENVI programming.
