Description

The CreateHIPSFile process is used to create a new HIPS file with specified CRS and extent or from a template.

Outputs

*.hips file.

Command Line Syntax

carisbatch --run CreateHIPSFile [options] <output>

User Interface Command

The following table describes the parameters for this process.

Long

Short key

Description

Can Repeat

Notes

 

--output-crs

c

A string specifying the horizontal coordinate reference system key of the output.

For time-dependent coordinate reference systems, the epoch can be specified, typically using the year as <crs_id>@1997. A fractional year can also be specified, such as <crs_id>@1997.3, if needed. If no epoch is specified, the reference epoch of the coordinate reference system is used.

If not set, CRS will be set during sensor data import, Automatic WGS84 UTM Zone computation.

FALSE

--user

Specify the user who created the project.

The default value is the current user.

FALSE

--description

Description for the project.

FALSE

--extent

E

Extent of the project defined as:

<LowerX> - A number specifying the lower left X origin in the coordinate reference system of the output.

<LowerY> - A number specifying the lower left Y origin in the coordinate reference system of the output.

<UpperX> - A number specifying the upper right X origin in the coordinate reference system of the output.

<UpperY> - A number specifying the upper right Y origin in the coordinate reference system of the output.

The unit is assumed to be that of the output's coordinate reference system, unless otherwise specified. When specifying units for unprojected data, an angle type unit is required. The order for unprojected coordinates is longitude followed by latitude. Supported units: cable, ch, cm, fm, ft, in, inm, km, m, mi, mm, nm, usfm, usft, usmi, usnm, usyd, yd, deg and rad.

If not set, the extent defaults to World extent.

FALSE

--template-file

The path to the template file.

FALSE
