Class STTopography

Extends STTransformRaster

Allow for the creation of slope, aspect, hillshade, and other topographic raster
layers from a DEM.

For information on how to create a hillshade see:

Static Functions


STRaster Aspect(STRaster TheInput,double ZFactor) Exception

Creates an raster from the input DEM raster

Parameters:
    TheInputRaster - The DEM to use as the starting raster
    ZFactor - The cells size of the final raster in the horizonal


STRaster AspectEastWest(STRaster TheInput,double ZFactor) Exception

Creates an aspect raster from a DEM where each pixel represents
how much a pixel's slope faces north vs. south.

Parameters:
    TheInputRaster - The DEM to use as the starting raster
    ZFactor - The cells size of the final raster in the horizonal


STRaster Hillshade(STRaster TheInputRaster,double Elevation,
     double Direction,double ZFactor,STColorRamp TheColorRamp) Exception

Creates a colorized or grayscale hillshade from a DEM. This
function works by creating a grayscale hillshade and then
multiplying it by a colorized raster to create a hillshade in
a single function.

Parameters:
    TheInputRaster - The DEM to use as the starting raster
    Elevation - The elevation of the sun above the horizon given as


STRaster Slope(STRaster TheInput,double ZFactor) Exception

Creates a slope raster from the input DEM raster

Parameters:
    TheInputRaster - The DEM to use as the starting raster
    ZFactor - Factor to expand the hillshade vertically. This also
