mapteksdk.data.ellipsoid module

Module containing the Ellipsoid class.

class Ellipsoid(object_id=None, lock_type=LockType.READWRITE)

Bases: Topology, RotationMixin

A closed quadratic surface.

Examples

The following example demonstrates creating an ellipsoid which has the following properties: * It is centred at (1.5, 1.5, 1.5) * The semi-major axis length is 1.75 * The major axis length is 1.5 * The minor axis length 1.0 * The bearing is 45 degrees. * The plunge is 15 degrees. * The dip is -30 degrees.

>>> from mapteksdk.project import Project
>>> from mapteksdk.data import Ellipsoid
>>> import numpy as np
>>> if __name__ == "__main__":
...   with Project() as project:
...     with project.new("geomodel/example", Ellipsoid) as ellipsoid:
...       ellipsoid.centre = (1.5, 1.5, 1.5)
...       ellipsoid.size = (1.75, 1.5, 1.0)
...       ellipsoid.set_orientation(
...         np.deg2rad(-30),
...         np.deg2rad(15),
...         np.deg2rad(45)
...       )
...       ellipsoid.colour = [255, 165, 0, 255]
property size: tuple[float, float, float]

Get the size of the ellipsoid.

This is a tuple containing three floats representing the size of the ellipsoid in the form: (semi-major, major, minor)

Raises:

ValueError – If set to an iterable which does not contain three floats, or if any of the floats are less than or equal to zero, NaN or infinite.

property centre: numpy.ndarray

The centre point of the ellipsoid.

property colour: numpy.ndarray

The colour of the discontinuity.

This is represented as a numpy array of shape (4,) of the form (Red, Green, Blue, Alpha) where each component is between 0 and 255.

property orientation

The rotation represented as Vulcan-style dip, plunge and bearing.

This is the tuple: (dip, plunge, bearing) where each value is in radians.

This is defined differently for ellipsoids to ensure consistency with the dip, plunge and bearing displayed in applications.

Notes

This is a derived property. It is recalculated each time this is called.

set_orientation(dip, plunge, bearing)

Overwrite the existing rotation with dip, plunge and bearing.

For block models, an orientation of (dip, plunge, bearing) radians is equivalent to rotating the model -dip radians around the X axis, -plunge radians around the Y axis and -(bearing - pi / 2) radians around the Z axis.

For ellipsoids, set_orientation(dip, plunge, bearing) is equivalent to set_heading_pitch_roll(bearing, plunge, -dip)

Parameters:
  • dip – Relative rotation of the Y axis around the X axis in radians. This should be between -pi and pi (inclusive).

  • plunge – Relative rotation of the X axis around the Y axis in radians. This should be between -pi / 2 and pi / 2 (exclusive).

  • bearing – Absolute bearing of the X axis around the Z axis in radians. For block models, this should be between -pi and pi (inclusive) For ellipsoids, this should be between -pi / 2 and pi / 2 (exclusive).

Raises:
  • TypeError – If dip, plunge or bearing are not numbers.

  • ReadOnlyError – If this object is not open for editing.

Examples

Set orientation of a new 3x3x3 block model to be plunge = 45 degrees, dip = 30 degrees and bearing = -50 degrees

>>> import math
>>> from mapteksdk.project import Project
>>> from mapteksdk.data import DenseBlockModel
>>> project = Project()
>>> with project.new("blockmodels/model_1", DenseBlockModel(
...         x_res=1, y_res=1, z_res=1,
...         x_count=3, y_count=3, z_count=3)) as new_model:
>>>     new_model.set_orientation(math.radians(45),
...                               math.radians(30),
...                               math.radians(-50))

Copy the rotation from one block model to another. Requires two block models.

>>> from mapteksdk.project import Project
>>> from mapteksdk.data import DenseBlockModel
>>> project = Project()
>>> with project.edit("blockmodels/model_1") as model_1:
...     with project.edit("blockmodels/model_2") as model_2:
...         model_2.set_orientation(*model_1.orientation)
property id: ObjectID[Ellipsoid]

Object ID that uniquely references this object in the project.

Returns:

The unique id of this object.

Return type:

ObjectID

classmethod static_type()

Return the type of a topology as stored in a Project.

This can be used for determining if the type of an object is topology.

attribute_names()

Returns a list containing the names of all object-level attributes.

Use this to iterate over the object attributes.

Returns:

List containing the attribute names.

Return type:

list

Examples

Iterate over all object attributes of the object stared at “target” and print their values.

>>> from mapteksdk.project import Project
>>> project = Project()
>>> with project.read("target") as read_object:
...     for name in read_object.attribute_names():
...         print(name, ":", read_object.get_attribute(name))
cancel()

Cancel any pending changes to the object.

This undoes all changes made to the object since it was opened (including any changes saved by save()) and then closes the object.

After this is called, attempting to read or edit any of the properties on this object (other than the id) will raise an ObjectClosedError.

Raises:
  • ReadOnlyError – If the object was open for read only (i.e not for editing). It is not necessary to call this for a read only object as there will be no pending changes.

  • ObjectClosedError – If called on a closed object.

close()

Closes the object and saves the changes to the Project.

Attempting to read or edit properties of an object after closing it will raise a ReadOnlyError.

property closed: bool

If this object has been closed.

Attempting to read or edit a closed object will raise an ObjectClosedError. Such an error typically indicates an error in the script and should not be caught.

Examples

If the object was opened with the Project.new(), Project.edit() or Project.read() in a “with” block, this will be True until the with block is closed and False afterwards.

>>> with self.project.new("cad/point_set", PointSet) as point_set:
>>>     point_set.points = [[1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6]]
>>>     print("closed?", point_set.closed)
>>> print("closed?", point_set.closed)
closed? False
closed? True
property coordinate_system: CoordinateSystem | None

The coordinate system the points of this object are in.

If the object has no coordinate system, this will be None.

Raises:

ReadOnlyError – If set on an object open for read-only.

Warning

Setting this property does not change the points. This is only a label stating the coordinate system the points are in.

Examples

Creating an edge network and setting the coordinate system to be WGS84. Note that setting the coordinate system does not change the points. It is only stating which coordinate system the points are in.

>>> from pyproj import CRS
>>> from mapteksdk.project import Project
>>> from mapteksdk.data import Polygon
>>> project = Project()
>>> with project.new("cad/rectangle", Polygon) as new_edges:
...     # Coordinates are in the form [longitude, latitude]
...     new_edges.points = [[112, 9], [112, 44], [154, 44], [154, 9]]
...     new_edges.coordinate_system = CRS.from_epsg(4326)

Often a standard map projection is not convenient or accurate for a given application. In such cases a local transform can be provided to allow coordinates to be specified in a more convenient system. The below example defines a local transform where the origin is translated 1.2 degrees north and 2.1 degree east, points are scaled to be twice as far from the horizontal origin and the coordinates are rotated 45 degrees clockwise about the horizontal_origin. Note that the points of the polygon are specified in the coordinate system after the local transform has been applied.

>>> import math
>>> from pyproj import CRS
>>> from mapteksdk.project import Project
>>> from mapteksdk.data import Polygon, CoordinateSystem, LocalTransform
>>> project = Project()
>>> transform = LocalTransform(
...     horizontal_origin = [1.2, 2.1],
...     horizontal_scale_factor = 2,
...     horizontal_rotation = math.pi / 4)
>>> system = CoordinateSystem(CRS.from_epsg(20249), transform)
>>> with project.new("cad/rectangle_transform", Polygon) as new_edges:
...     new_edges.points = [[112, 9], [112, 44], [154, 44], [154, 9]]
...     new_edges.coordinate_system = system

See also

mapteksdk.data.coordinate_systems.CoordinateSystem

Allows for a coordinate system to be defined with an optional local transform.

property created_date: datetime

The date and time (in UTC) of when this object was created.

Returns:

The date and time the object was created. 0:0:0 1/1/1970 if the operation failed.

Return type:

datetime.datetime

delete_all_attributes()

Delete all object attributes attached to an object.

This only deletes object attributes and has no effect on PrimitiveAttributes.

Raises:

RuntimeError – If all attributes cannot be deleted.

delete_attribute(attribute)

Deletes a single object-level attribute.

Deleting a non-existent object attribute will not raise an error.

Parameters:

attribute (str) – Name of attribute to delete.

Returns:

True if the object attribute existed and was deleted; False if the object attribute did not exist.

Return type:

bool

Raises:

RuntimeError – If the attribute cannot be deleted.

dissociate_raster(raster)

Removes the raster from the object.

If an error occurs after dissociating a raster resulting in save() not being called, the dissociation of the raster can only be undone if the application’s API version is 1.6 or greater.

Prior to mapteksdk 1.6: Dissociating a raster will not be undone if an error occurs.

Parameters:

raster (Raster | ObjectID[Raster]) – The raster to dissociate.

Returns:

True if the raster was successfully dissociated from the object, False if the raster was not associated with the object.

Return type:

bool

Raises:
  • TypeError – If raster is not a Raster.

  • ReadOnlyError – If this object is open for read-only.

Notes

This only removes the association between the Raster and the object, it does not clear the registration information from the Raster.

Examples

Dissociate the first raster found on a picked object.

>>> from mapteksdk.project import Project
>>> from mapteksdk import operations
>>> project = Project()
>>> oid = operations.object_pick(
...     support_label="Pick an object to remove a raster from.")
... with project.edit(oid) as data_object:
...     report = f"There were no raster to remove from {oid.path}"
...     for index in data_object.rasters:
...         data_object.dissociate_raster(data_object.rasters[index])
...         report = f"Removed raster {index} from {oid.path}"
...         break
... # Now that the raster is dissociated and the object is closed,
... # the raster can be associated with a different object.
... operations.write_report("Remove Raster", report)
property extent: Extent

The axes aligned bounding extent of the object.

get_attribute(name)

Returns the value for the attribute with the specified name.

Parameters:

name (str) – The name of the object attribute to get the value for.

Returns:

The value of the object attribute name. For dtype = datetime.datetime this is an integer representing the number of milliseconds since 1st Jan 1970. For dtype = datetime.date this is a tuple of the form: (year, month, day).

Return type:

ObjectAttributeTypes

Raises:

KeyError – If there is no object attribute called name.

Warning

In the future this function may be changed to return datetime.datetime and datetime.date objects instead of the current representation for object attributes of type datetime.datetime or datetime.date.

get_attribute_type(name)

Returns the type of the attribute with the specified name.

Parameters:

name (str) – Name of the attribute whose type should be returned.

Returns:

The type of the object attribute name.

Return type:

ObjectAttributeDataTypes

Raises:

KeyError – If there is no object attribute called name.

get_colour_map()

Return the ID of the colour map object associated with this object.

Returns:

The ID of the colour map object or null object ID if there is no colour map.

Return type:

ObjectID

property heading_pitch_roll: tuple[float, float, float]

The heading, pitch and roll angles for this rotation.

The heading is defined as the angle of the rotation about the -z axis. The pitch is defined as the angle of the rotation about the x axis. The roll is defined as the rotation about the y axis.

property is_read_only: bool

If this object is read-only.

This will return True if the object was open with Project.read() and False if it was open with Project.edit() or Project.new(). Attempting to edit a read-only object will raise an error.

property lock_type: LockType

Indicates whether operating in read-only or read-write mode.

Use the is_read_only property instead for checking if an object is open for reading or editing.

Returns:

The type of lock on this object. This will be LockType.ReadWrite if the object is open for editing and LockType.Read if the object is open for reading.

Return type:

LockType

property modified_date: datetime

The date and time (in UTC) of when this object was last modified.

Returns:

The date and time this object was last modified. 0:0:0 1/1/1970 if the operation failed.

Return type:

datetime.datetime

property rasters: dict[int, ObjectID[Raster]]

The raster associated with this object.

This is a dictionary of raster indices and Object IDs of the raster images currently associated with this object.

The keys are the raster ids and the values are the Object IDs of the associated rasters. Note that all raster ids are integers however they may not be consecutive - for example, an object may have raster ids 0, 1, 5 and 200.

Notes

Rasters with higher indices appear on top of rasters with lower indices. The maximum possible raster id is 255.

Removing a raster from this dictionary will not remove the raster association from the object. Use dissociate_raster to do this.

Examples

Iterate over all rasters on an object and invert the colours. Note that this will fail if there is no object at the path “target” and it will do nothing if no rasters are associated with the target.

>>> from mapteksdk.project import Project
>>> project = Project()
>>> with project.read("target") as read_object:
...     for raster in read_object.rasters.values():
...         with project.edit(raster) as edit_raster:
...             edit_raster.pixels[:, :3] = 255 - edit_raster.pixels[:, :3]
remove_coordinate_system()

Remove the coordinate system from the object.

This does not change the geometry of the object. It only clears the label which states what coordinate system the object is in.

This has no effect if the object does not have a coordinate system.

rotate(angle, axis)

Rotates the object by the specified angle around the specified axis.

Parameters:
  • angle (float) – The angle to rotate by in radians. Positive is clockwise, negative is anticlockwise (When looking in the direction of axis).

  • axis (Axis) – The axis to rotate by.

Raises:

ReadOnlyError – If this object is open for read-only.

Examples

Create a 2x2x2 dense block model which is rotated by pi / 4 radians (45 degrees) around the X axis.

>>> import math
>>> from mapteksdk.project import Project
>>> from mapteksdk.data import DenseBlockModel, Axis
>>> project = Project()
>>> with project.new("blockmodels/dense_rotated", DenseBlockModel(
...         x_res=1, y_res=1, z_res=1,
...         x_count=2, y_count=2, z_count=3)) as new_model:
...     new_model.rotate(math.pi / 4, Axis.X)

If you want to specify the angle in degrees instead of radians, use the math.radians function. Additionally rotate can be called multiple times to rotate the block model in multiple axes. Both of these are shown in the below example. The resulting block model is rotated 32 degrees around the Y axis and 97 degrees around the Z axis.

>>> import math
>>> from mapteksdk.project import Project
>>> from mapteksdk.data import DenseBlockModel, Axis
>>> project = Project()
>>> with project.new("blockmodels/dense_rotated_degrees", DenseBlockModel(
...         x_res=1, y_res=1, z_res=1,
...         x_count=2, y_count=2, z_count=3)) as new_model:
...     new_model.rotate(math.radians(32), Axis.Y)
...     new_model.rotate(math.radians(97), Axis.Z)
rotate_2d(angle)

Rotates the object in two dimensions. This is equivalent to rotate with axis=Axis.Z

Parameters:

angle (float) – The angle to rotate by in radians. Positive is clockwise, negative is anticlockwise.

Raises:

ReadOnlyError – If this object is open for read-only.

property rotation: float

Returns the magnitude of the rotation of the object in radians.

This value is the total rotation of the object relative to its original position.

Notes

If the object has been rotated in multiple axes, this will not be the sum of the rotations performed. For example, a rotation of 90 degrees around the X axis, followed by a rotation of 90 degrees around the Y axis corresponds to a single rotation of 120 degrees so this function would return (2 * pi) / 3 radians.

save()

Save the changes made to the object.

Generally a user does not need to call this function, because it is called automatically at the end of a with block using Project.new() or Project.edit().

Returns:

The change reasons for the operation. This depends on what changes to the object were saved. If the api_version is less than 1.9, this always returns ChangeReasons.NO_CHANGE.

Return type:

ChangeReasons

set_attribute(name, dtype, data)

Sets the value for the object attribute with the specified name.

This will overwrite any existing attribute with the specified name.

Parameters:
  • name (str) – The name of the object attribute for which the value should be set.

  • dtype (type[Union[NoneType, Type[NoneType], ctypes.c_bool, ctypes.c_byte, ctypes.c_ubyte, ctypes.c_short, ctypes.c_ushort, ctypes.c_long, ctypes.c_ulong, ctypes.c_longlong, ctypes.c_ulonglong, ctypes.c_float, ctypes.c_double, ctypes.c_char_p, datetime.datetime, datetime.date, bool, int, float, str]] | None) – The type of data to assign to the attribute. This should be a type from the ctypes module or datetime.datetime or datetime.date. Passing bool is equivalent to passing ctypes.c_bool. Passing str is equivalent to passing ctypes.c_char_p. Passing int is equivalent to passing ctypes.c_int16. Passing float is equivalent to passing ctypes.c_double.

  • data (Any) – The value to assign to object attribute name. For dtype = datetime.datetime this can either be a datetime object or timestamp which will be passed directly to datetime.utcfromtimestamp(). For dtype = datetime.date this can either be a date object or a tuple of the form: (year, month, day).

Raises:
  • ValueError – If dtype is an unsupported type.

  • TypeError – If value is an inappropriate type for object attribute name.

  • ValueError – If name starts or ends with whitespace or is empty.

  • RuntimeError – If a different error occurs.

Notes

If an error occurs after adding a new object attribute or editing an existing object attribute resulting in save() not being called, the changes to the object attributes can only be undone if the application’s API version is 1.6 or greater.

Prior to mapteksdk 1.6: Adding new object attributes, or editing the values of object attributes, will not be undone if an error occurs.

Examples

Create an object attribute on an object at “target” and then read its value.

>>> import ctypes
>>> from mapteksdk.project import Project
>>> project = Project()
>>> with project.edit("target") as edit_object:
...     edit_object.set_attribute("count", ctypes.c_int16, 0)
... with project.read("target") as read_object:
...     print(read_object.get_attribute("count"))
0
set_heading_pitch_roll(heading, pitch, roll)

Replace the existing rotation with specified heading, pitch and roll.

Parameters:
  • heading (float) – Angle in radians of the rotation about the -z axis. This should be between 0 and 2 * pi radians (inclusive).

  • pitch (float) – Angle in radians of the rotation about the x axis. This should be between -pi / 2 and pi / 2 radians (inclusive).

  • roll (float) – Angle in radians of the rotation about the y axis. This should be between -pi / 2 and pi / 2 radians (inclusive).

Raises:

ValueError – If heading < 0 or heading > 2 * pi. If pitch < -pi / 2 or pitch > pi / 2. If roll < -pi / 2 or roll > pi / 2.

set_rotation(angle, axis)

Overwrites the existing rotation with a rotation around the specified axis by the specified angle.

This is useful for resetting the rotation to a known point.

Parameters:
  • angle (float) – Angle to set the rotation to in radians. Positive is clockwise, negative is anticlockwise.

  • axis (Axis) – Axis to rotate around.

Raises:

ReadOnlyError – If this object is open for read-only.

set_rotation_2d(angle)

Overwrite the existing rotation with a simple 2d rotation.

Parameters:

angle (float) – Angle to set the rotation to in radians.

Raises:

ReadOnlyError – If this object is not open for editing.
