VectorAttributeToROIs Task

This task creates regions of interest (ROIs) from geometry records in a vector.

Example

; Start the application

e = ENVI()

; Open an input file

File = Filepath('qb_boulder_msi_vectors.shp', Subdir=['data'], $

  Root_Dir=e.Root_Dir)

Vector = e.OpenVector(File)

; Get the task from the catalog of ENVITasks

Task = ENVITask('VectorAttributeToROIs')

; Define inputs

Task.ATTRIBUTE_NAME = 'CLASS_NAME'

Task.INPUT_VECTOR = Vector

; Run the task

Task.Execute

; Display the result

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

  Root_Dir=e.Root_Dir)

Raster = e.OpenRaster(DisplayFile)

View = e.GetView()

Layer = View.CreateLayer(Raster)

VisRois = !NULL

Foreach Roi, Task.OUTPUT_ROI do $

  VisRois = [VisRois, Layer.AddRoi(Roi)]

Syntax

Result = ENVITask('VectorAttributeToROIs')

Input properties (Set, Get): ATTRIBUTE_NAME, ATTRIBUTE_VALUE, IGNORE_CASE, INPUT_VECTOR, OUTPUT_ROI_URI

Output properties (Get only): OUTPUT_ROI

Properties marked as (Init) can be set during the initial creation of the object. Properties marked as (Get) can be retrieved. Properties marked as (Set) can be set after initial creation.

Properties

This task inherits the following properties from ENVITask:

COMMUTE_ON_DOWNSAMPLE

ATTRIBUTE_NAME (required)

Specify the attribute name used to search for records in the vector. If you search a particular attribute without providing an ATTRIBUTE_VALUE, an ROI will be created for each unique record with that attribute. If you search an attribute and provide an ATTRIBUTE_VALUE, an ROI will be created for records that contain that value.

ATTRIBUTE_VALUE (optional)

Specify the attribute value used to search for records in the vector.

IGNORE_CASE (optional)

Set this property to true to ignore case when searching attribute values. The default is false.

INPUT_VECTOR (required)

Specify the input vector that contains the geometry records.

OUTPUT_ROI

This is a reference to the output ROI.

OUTPUT_ROI_URI (optional)

Specify a string with the fully qualified path and filename for OUTPUT_ROI.
