Description

Normalizes the input GeoRaster object using the specified mean and standard deviation.

Parameters

inGeoRaster

The SDO_GEORASTER object to be normalized.

pyramidLevel

A number specifying the pyramid level to be normalized in the source GeoRaster object. If null, the default is 0.

cropArea

Crop area definition. If cropArea is of type SDO_GEOMETRY, use the layerNumbers parameter to specify one or more layer numbers; if cropArea is of type SDO_NUMBER_ARRAY, use the bandNumbers parameter to specify one or more band numbers.

If the data type is SDO_NUMBER_ARRAY, the parameter identifies the upper-left (row, column) and lower-right (row, column) coordinates of a rectangular window, and raster space is assumed. If the data type is SDO_GEOMETRY, the minimum bounding rectangle (MBR) of the geometry object is used as the crop area; see also the Usage Notes for SDO_SRID requirements.

bandNumbers

A string identifying the physical band numbers on which the operation is to be performed. Use commas to delimit the values, and a hyphen to indicate a range (for example, 1-3 for bands 1, 2, and 3).

layerNumbers

A string identifying the logical layer numbers on which the operation is to be performed. Use commas to delimit the values, and a hyphen to indicate a range (for example, 2-4 for layers 2, 3, and 4).

means

The target mean values for each output band. If only one value is specified, it is applied to all the output bands; otherwise, it must have the same number of values as the number of bands of the output GeoRaster object. The target mean values must be in the range of the cell depth of the outGeoRaster object. If null, it defaults to 128.

standardDeviations

The target standard deviation values for each output band. If only one value is specified, it is applied to all the output bands; otherwise, it must have the same number of values as the number of bands of the output GeoRaster object. The target standard deviation values must be in the range of the cell depth of the outGeoRaster object. If null, it defaults to 100.

refGeoRaster

The reference GeoRaster object. Instead of giving the target mean and standard deviation, the mean and standard deviation of refGeoRaster are used as the target. The reference GeoRaster object must have the same number of bands as the input GeoRaster object.

storageParam

A string specifying storage parameters, as explained in Storage Parameters.

outGeoRaster

The output SDO_GEORASTER object that reflects the results of the operation. Must be either a valid existing GeoRaster object or an empty GeoRaster object. (Empty GeoRaster objects are explained in Blank and Empty GeoRaster Objects.) Cannot be the same GeoRaster object as inGeoRaster.

parallelParam

Specifies the degree of parallelism for the operation. If specified, must be in the form parallel=n, where n is greater than 1. The database optimizer uses the degree of parallelism specified by this parameter. If not specified, then by default there is no parallel processing. (For more information, see Parallel Processing in GeoRaster.)

If parallelism is specified, the procedure performs an internal commit while the process is running. Therefore, you cannot roll back the results of this procedure. If an error occurs (even if it is raised by the Oracle parallel server), you must delete the resulting output GeoRaster object explicitly in order to roll back the operation.

rasterBlob

BLOB to hold the output of the processing result. It must exist or have been initialized before the operation.

outArea

An SDO_GEOMETRY object containing the MBR (minimum bounding rectangle) in the model coordinate system of the resulting object.

outWindow

An SDO_NUMBER_ARRAY object identifying the coordinates of the upper-left and lower-right corners of the output window in the cell space.

Usage Notes

The input GeoRaster object must have statistics generated for each output band.

The reference GeoRaster object must have the same number of bands as the input GeoRaster object. The cell depth of the refGeoRaster object cannot be greater than the cell depth of the outGeoRaster object. The reference GeoRaster object must have statistics set in the metadata.

If the cropArea parameter data type is SDO_GEOMETRY, the SDO_SRID value must be one of the following:

  • Null, to specify raster space

  • A value from the SRID column of the MDSYS.CS_SRS table

    If the SDO_SRID values for the cropArea parameter geometry and the model space are different, the cropArea parameter geometry is automatically transformed to the coordinate system of the model space before the operation is performed. (Raster space and model space are explained in GeoRaster Data Model.)

Color map in the input GeoRaster object is not supported.

The output GeoRaster object has no pyramid or mask.

Examples

The following example creates a GeoRaster object and performs normalization on the bands of the input GeoRaster object based on the given means and standard deviations. (It refers to a table named GEORASTER_TABLE, whose definition is presented after Example 1-1 in Storage Parameters.)

DECLARE
  gr1 sdo_georaster;
  gr2 sdo_georaster;
  cropArea sdo_number_array := null;
BEGIN
  INSERT INTO georaster_table (georid, georaster)
    VALUES (41, sdo_geor.init('RDT_1'))
    RETURNING georaster INTO gr2;

  SELECT georaster INTO gr1 FROM georaster_table WHERE georid=4;

  sdo_geor_ip.normalize(gr1, 0, cropArea, null, sdo_number_array(50, 80, 100), sdo_number_array(30, 20, 50), null, gr2);
  UPDATE georaster_table SET georaster=gr2 WHERE georid=41;
  COMMIT;
END;
/

The following exampleperforms normalization on the bands of the input GeoRaster object based on the given means and standard deviations; the output is in a temporary BLOB. (It refers to a table named GEORASTER_TABLE, whose definition is presented after Example 1-1 in Storage Parameters.)

DECLARE
  gr1 sdo_georaster;
  gr2 sdo_georaster;
  cropArea sdo_number_array := null;
  out_lob  BLOB;
  outArea  sdo_geometry := null;
  outWindow sdo_geometry := null; 
BEGIN
  dbms_lob.create_temporary(out_lob, TRUE);

  SELECT georaster INTO gr1 FROM georaster_table WHERE georid=4;

  sdo_geor_ip.normalize(gr1, 0, cropArea, null, sdo_number_array(50, 80, 100), sdo_number_array(30, 20, 50), null, out_lob, outArea, outWindow);
  if outWindow is not null then
     dbms_output.put_line('output window: (' || outWindow(1) || ',' ||
                           outWindow(2) || ',' || outWindow(3) || ',' || outWindow(4) || ')');
  end if;
  dbms_lob.freeTemporary(out_lob);

END;
