Function Documentation

def ecohydrolib.geosciaus.demwcs.getDEMForBoundingBox	(		config,
			outputDir,
			outDEMFilename,
			bbox,
			coverage = COVERAGE_SRTM_1DEG_AUS,
			srs = 'EPSG:4326',
			fmt = FORMAT_GEOTIFF,
			overwrite = True
	)

Fetch a digital elevation model (DEM) from the GeoBrain WCS4DEM WCS-compliant web service.

Will write any error returned by query to sys.stderr.

Parameters

config	A Python ConfigParser (not currently used)
outputDir	String representing the absolute/relative path of the directory into which output DEM should be written
outDEMFilename	String representing the name of the DEM file to be written
bbox	Dict representing the lat/long coordinates and spatial reference of the bounding box area for which the DEM is to be extracted. The following keys must be specified: minX, minY, maxX, maxY, srs.
coverage	String representing the DEM source from which to get the DEM coverage. Must be a value listed in SUPPORTED_COVERAGE
srs	String representing the spatial reference of the raster to be returned.
format	String representing the MIME type of the raster format to be returned. Must be a value listed in SUPPORTED_FORMATS
overwrite	Boolean value indicating whether or not the file indicated by filename should be overwritten. If False and filename exists, IOError exception will be thrown with errno.EEXIST

IOError if outputDir is not a writable directory IOError if outDEMFilename already exists and overwrite is False (see above)

Returns

Tuple(True if DEM data were fetched and False if not, URL of DEM fetched)
