Use the Hydrate static function method to create the object from its dehydrated form. The dehydrated form consists of a hash containing the object’s properties and values. The Hydrate and Dehydrate methods let you store the object state in memory and restore it later.

Representing an object as a hash is necessary for running ENVI analytics with the ENVI Task Engine.

See the ENVIHydrate function if you are creating a general IDL routine that will restore multiple object types.

For additional information, see What are Hydrate and Dehydrate routines used for?

Example


; Start the application
e = ENVI(/HEADLESS)
 
; Open low-resolution raster and high-resolution raster input files
lowResFile = Filepath('qb_boulder_msi', Subdir=['data'], $
  Root_Dir=e.Root_Dir)
lowResRaster = e.OpenRaster(lowResFile )
highResFile = Filepath('qb_boulder_pan', Subdir=['data'], $
  Root_Dir=e.Root_Dir)
highResRaster = e.OpenRaster(highResFile)
 
; Create the NNDiffuse pan sharpening raster
nnDiffusePanSharpeningRaster = ENVINNDiffusePanSharpeningRaster(lowResRaster, highResRaster, $
   SPATIAL_SMOOTHNESS=2.5, INTENSITY_SMOOTHNESS=20)
 
; Retrieve the dehydrated hash
dehydratedForm = nnDiffusePanSharpeningRaster.Dehydrate()
nnDiffusePanSharpeningRaster.close
 
; Restore the object
newImage = ENVINNDiffusePanSharpeningRaster.Hydrate(dehydratedForm)
Print, newImage, /IMPLIED_PRINT

Syntax


Result = ENVINNDiffusePanSharpeningRaster.Hydrate(DehydratedForm, ERROR=value)

Return Value


The result is a reference to a new object instance of this virtual raster class.

Arguments


DehydratedForm

Key

Description

factory

Required. A string value of NNDiffusePanSharpeningRaster indicating what object type the hash represents.

low_resolution_raster

Required. The input low-resolution multispectral ENVIRaster for use in ENVI processing. Example:

"low_resolution_raster": {
    "url": "/usr/local/INSTALL_DIR/envi/data/qb_boulder_msi",
    "factory": "URLRaster"
}

high_resolution_raster

Required. The input high-resolution pan ENVIRaster for use in ENVI processing. Example:

"high_resolution_raster": {
    "url": "/usr/local/INSTALL_DIR/envi/data/qb_boulder_pan",
    "factory": "URLRaster"
}

name

A string that identifies the raster.

pixel_size_ratio

A scalar integer defining the pixel size ratio of the low-resolution raster and the high-resolution raster.

spatial_smoothness

A positive number that defines the spatial smoothness factor of the NNDiffuse algorithm.

intensity_smoothness

A positive number that defines the intensity smoothness factor of the NNDiffuse algorithm.

Keywords


ERROR (optional)

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.
