Method Detail

getCalibrator

public static final Calibrator getCalibrator(int id,
                                             int[] cal)
                                      throws CalibratorException

Get an appropriate Calibrator for the sensor id provided. This assumes a RAW source data format. See the McIDAS Users Guide Appendix C for a table of sensor ids.

Parameters:

id - Sensor id from the directory block

cal - Calibration block used to initialize the Calibrator

Returns:

initialized Calibrator with a source calibration type of RAW.

Throws:

CalibratorException - on an error initializing the object.

getCalibrator

                                             int srcType,
                                             int[] cal)
                                      throws CalibratorException

Get an appropriate Calibrator for the sensor id provided. See the McIDAS Users Guide Appendix C for a table of sensor ids.

Parameters:

id - Sensor id from the directory block

srcType - the source data type from the directory block

cal - Calibration block used to initialize the Calibrator

Returns:

initialized Calibrator.

Throws:

CalibratorException - on an error initializing the object or if the sensor is unknown.

hasCalibrator

public static final boolean hasCalibrator(int id)

Check if there is a Calibrator implemented for a sensor.

Parameters:

id - Id of the sensor from the McIDAS Users Guide Appendix C

Returns:

True if there is an implemented Calibrator, false otherwise. see The McIDAS Users Guide
