Python API Create a new DataDefinition - 52North/IlwisCore GitHub Wiki

In IlwisObjects the DataDefinition defines, what kind of data is contained in the object and which kind of data may be put into it. For this definiton it relies on a Domain and the according Range. All possibilities can be seen in the following table. Click on the name to get redirected to the according documentation (so far available).

Domain	Range
NumericDomain	NumericRange
ItemDomain	NumericItemRangeThematicRangeNamedItemRange
TimeDomain	TimeInterval
ColorDomain	ContinousColorRange
TextDomain	String

Creating a new DataDefinition can now simply be done by passing the domain and optionally the range to it's constructor.

 #Create range
 nr = NumericRange(0.0, 10000.0)
 #Create empty Numeric Domain
 numdom = NumericDomain()
 #Set range of new domain
 numdom.setRange(nr)

 datdef = DataDefinition(numdom, nr)
