Detailed Description

This class is used to create PhotoModel objects.

Typically, applications which perform photometric corrections need to use different types of photometric function such as Lambert, Minnaert, HapkeLegendre, etc. If this factory is given a Pvl object which contains a PhotoModel definition, it will create that specific instance of the class. For example,

Object = PhotometricModel
Group = Algorithm
Name = Minnaert
...
EndGroup
...
EndObject
End

Will create a Minnaert object (which is derived from PhotoModel). The simplest way to create a PhotoModel class is to use the static Create method.

Pvl p("myphotmodel.pvl");
PhotoModel *ar = PhotoModelFactory::Create(p);

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ PhotoModelFactory()

Isis::PhotoModelFactory::PhotoModelFactory ( )
inlineprivate

Constructor (its private so you can't use it).

Use the Create Method instead.

Definition at line 75 of file PhotoModelFactory.h.

◆ ~PhotoModelFactory()

Isis::PhotoModelFactory::~PhotoModelFactory ( )
inlineprivate

Destroys the PhotoModelFactory.

Member Function Documentation

◆ Create()

PhotoModel * Isis::PhotoModelFactory::Create ( Pvl pvl)
static

Create a PhotoModel object using a PVL specification.

An example of the PVL required for this is:

Object = PhotometricModel
Group = Algorithm
PhtName/Name = Minnaert
K = 0.7
EndGroup
EndObject

There are many other options that can be set via the pvl and are described in other documentation (see below).

Parameters
pvlThe pvl object containing the specification
