Interface TiledResource

All Superinterfaces:

Resource

All Known Subinterfaces:

Writable­Tiled­Resource

All Known Implementing Classes:

Tiled­Grid­Coverage­Resource

public interface TiledResource
extends Resource

A resource which content can be accessed by smaller chunks called tiles. The use of Tiled­Resource is not strictly necessary for efficient data loading because Resource implementations should automatically take advantage of tiling when answering requests. However, clients may use this information for optimizing their loading strategy.

A Tiled­Resource may contain multiple Tile­Matrix­Set instances, each one for a different Coordinate­Reference­System. Most format specifications only support a single Tile­Matrix­Set, but a few ones like WMTS may have several.

Method Details

getTileMatrixSets

Collection<? extends TileMatrixSet> getTileMatrixSets()
                                               throws DataStoreException

Returns the collection of all available tile matrix sets in this resource. The returned collection typically contains exactly one instance. It may be an empty collection if the implementation supports tiling, but this particular resource instance is untiled.

Returns:

all available Tile­Matrix­Set instances, or an empty collection if none.

Throws:

Data­Store­Exception - if an error occurred while fetching the tile matrix sets.
