Image Layers

Images can function as layers in your maps in almost the same way as any other type of layer. You can have several image layers in a map. If a TIFF file is not registered, you can register it. Here are GISDK functions that work with image files and layers:

GISDK Function	Summary
AddImageLayer()	Adds an image layer to a map
GetImageFileInfo()	Gets information about a raster image file
GetImageLayerOptions()	Gets the display and interpolation specifications of an image layer.
GetTIFFDimensions()	Gets the number of rows and columns in a TIFF image
IsImageRegisterable()	Checks to see if an image can be registered
IsLayer()	Determines whether a layer is of a given type
RegisterImage()	Registers an image to a particular location, scale, and projection
SetImageLayerOptions()	Sets the display and interpolation specifications of an image layer
UnRegisterImageFile()	Removes registration information from a TIFF image file
