Class DefaultPlatform

All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, Emptiable, Lenient­Comparable, Identified­Object, Platform

public class DefaultPlatform extends ISOMetadata implements Platform
Designation of the platform used to acquire the dataset. The following properties are mandatory in a well-formed metadata according ISO 19115:
MI_Platform   ├─identifier……………… Unique identification of the platform.   │   └─code…………………… Alphanumeric value identifying an instance in the namespace.   ├─description…………… Narrative description of the platform supporting the instrument.   └─instrument……………… Instrument(s) mounted on a platform.       ├─identifier…… Unique identification of the instrument.       └─type…………………… Name of the type of instrument.

Limitations

  • Instances of this class are not synchronized for multi-threading. Synchronization, if needed, is caller's responsibility.
  • Serialized objects of this class are not guaranteed to be compatible with future Apache SIS releases. Serialization support is appropriate for short term storage or RMI between applications running the same version of Apache SIS. For long term storage, use XML instead.

0.3

    • DefaultPlatform

      public DefaultPlatform()
      Constructs an initially empty platform.
    • DefaultPlatform

      public DefaultPlatform(Platform object)
      Constructs a new instance initialized with the values from the specified metadata object. This is a shallow copy constructor, because the other metadata contained in the given object are not recursively copied.
      Parameters:
      object - the metadata to copy values from, or null if none.

    • castOrCopy

      public static DefaultPlatform castOrCopy(Platform object)
      Returns a SIS metadata implementation with the values of the given arbitrary implementation. This method performs the first applicable action in the following choices:
      • If the given object is null, then this method returns null.
      • Otherwise if the given object is already an instance of Default­Platform, then it is returned unchanged.
      • Otherwise a new Default­Platform instance is created using the copy constructor and returned. Note that this is a shallow copy operation, because the other metadata contained in the given object are not recursively copied.
      Parameters:
      object - the object to get as a SIS implementation, or null if none.
      Returns:
      a SIS implementation containing the values of the given object (may be the given object itself), or null if the argument was null.
    • getCitation

      public Citation getCitation()
      Returns the source where information about the platform is described. null if unspecified.
      Specified by:
      get­Citation in interface Platform
      Returns:
      source where information about the platform is described, or null.
    • setCitation

      public void setCitation(Citation newValue)
      Sets the source where information about the platform is described.
      Parameters:
      new­Value - the new citation value.
    • getIdentifier

      public Identifier getIdentifier()
      Returns the unique identification of the platform.
      Specified by:
      get­Identifier in interface Platform
      Overrides:
      get­Identifier in class ISOMetadata
      Returns:
      unique identification of the platform, or null.
    • setIdentifier

      public void setIdentifier(Identifier newValue)
      Sets the unique identification of the platform.
      Overrides:
      set­Identifier in class ISOMetadata
      Parameters:
      new­Value - the new identifier value.
    • getDescription

      public InternationalString getDescription()
      Gets the narrative description of the platform supporting the instrument.
      Specified by:
      get­Description in interface Platform
      Returns:
      narrative description of the platform, or null.
    • setDescription

      public void setDescription(InternationalString newValue)
      Sets the narrative description of the platform supporting the instrument.
      Parameters:
      new­Value - the new description value.
    • getSponsors

      public Collection<ResponsibleParty> getSponsors()
      Returns the organization responsible for building, launch, or operation of the platform.
      Upcoming API change — generalization
      As of ISO 19115:2014, Responsible­Party is replaced by the Responsibility parent interface. This change will be tentatively applied in GeoAPI 4.0.
      Specified by:
      get­Sponsors in interface Platform
      Returns:
      organization responsible for building, launch, or operation of the platform.
    • setSponsors

      public void setSponsors(Collection<? extends ResponsibleParty> newValues)
      Sets the organization responsible for building, launch, or operation of the platform.
      Upcoming API change — generalization
      As of ISO 19115:2014, Responsible­Party is replaced by the Responsibility parent interface. This change will be tentatively applied in GeoAPI 4.0.
      Parameters:
      new­Values - the new sponsors values;
