ExportRasterToTIFF Task

This task exports a raster to TIFF file format.

Example

; Start the application

e = ENVI()

; Open an input file

File = Filepath('qb_boulder_msi', Subdir=['data'], $

Root_Dir=e.Root_Dir)

Raster = e.OpenRaster(File)

; Get the task from the catalog of ENVITasks

Task = ENVITask('ExportRasterToTIFF')

; Define inputs

Task.INPUT_RASTER = Raster

; Run the task

Task.Execute

; Get the collection of data objects currently available in the Data Manager

DataColl = e.Data

; Add the output to the Data Manager

DataColl.Add, Task.OUTPUT_RASTER

; Display the result

View = e.GetView()

Layer = View.CreateLayer(Task.OUTPUT_RASTER)

Syntax

Result = ENVITask('ExportRasterToTIFF')

Input parameters (Set, Get): DATA_IGNORE_VALUE, INPUT_RASTER, INTERLEAVE, OUTPUT_RASTER_URI

Output parameters (Get only): OUTPUT_RASTER

Parameters marked as "Set" are those that you can set to specific values. You can also retrieve their current values any time. Parameters marked as "Get" are those whose values you can retrieve but not set.

Input Parameters

DATA_IGNORE_VALUE (optional)

Specify a unique data value for pixels in the output raster that have a non-zero pixel state value. See Raster Pixel State for more information.

INPUT_RASTER (required)

Specify a raster to export to TIFF format.

INTERLEAVE (optional)

Specify a string indicating the data interleave of the output raster. If this parameter is not set, the interleave of the input raster will be used. The choices are:

BSQ

BIP

TIFF files do not support BIL interleave. If INTERLEAVE is not set and the image has a BIL interleave, the image will be saved to BSQ interleave.

OUTPUT_RASTER_URI (optional)

Specify a string with the fully qualified filename and path of the associated OUTPUT_RASTER.

If you do not specify this parameter, or set it to an exclamation symbol (!), ENVI creates a temporary file.
If you set it to the hash symbol (#), ENVI creates a file in the temporary directory, but this file will not be deleted when ENVI closes.
