Method Detail

size

int size()

The number of profiles along the trajectory.

Specified by:

size in interface NestedPointFeatureCollection

Returns:

number of profiles along the trajectory.

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 ProfileFeature in this Collection.

Throws:

java.io.IOException - on read error

getFeatureData

StructureData getFeatureData()
                      throws java.io.IOException

The actual data of just this feature.

Returns:

the actual data of this feature.

Throws:

java.io.IOException - on i/o error
