Method Detail

hasNext

boolean hasNext()
         throws java.io.IOException

Use the internal iterator to check if there is another ProfileFeature in the iteration.

Returns:

true is there is another ProfileFeature in the iteration.

Throws:

java.io.IOException - on read error

next

ProfileFeature next()
             throws java.io.IOException

Use the internal iterator to get the next ProfileFeature in the iteration. You must call hasNext() before you call this.

Returns:

the next ProfileFeature in the iteration

Throws:

java.io.IOException - on read error

resetIteration

void resetIteration()
             throws java.io.IOException

Reset the internal iterator for another iteration over the ProfileFeatures in this Collection.

Throws:

java.io.IOException - on read error

subset

ProfileFeatureCollection subset(LatLonRect boundingBox)
                         throws java.io.IOException

Subset this collection by boundingBox

Specified by:

subset in interface NestedPointFeatureCollection

Parameters:

boundingBox - want only profiles in this lat/lon bounding box.

Returns:

subsetted collection, may be null if empty

Throws:

java.io.IOException - on read error
