require(["esri/layers/support/PixelBlock"], function(PixelBlock) { /* code goes here */ });
Class: esri/layers/support/PixelBlock
Inheritance: PixelBlock Accessor
Since: ArcGIS API for JavaScript 4.0

An object representing the pixel arrays in the view. It stores and decodes source data fetched from an image service associated with an ImageryLayer. This provides the user access to each pixel on the client via the pixels property. The PixelBlock object is designed to handle generic pixel arrays from any raster data source.

Property Details

declaredClass Stringreadonly inherited
Since: ArcGIS API for JavaScript 4.7

The name of the class. The declared class name is formatted as esri.folder.className.

height Number

The height (or number of rows) of the PixelBlock in pixels.

An array of nodata mask. All pixels are valid when mask is null.

maskIsAlpha Boolean

Indicates whether mask should be used as alpha values. If no (default), a pixel is valid when corresponding mask value is truthy

A two dimensional array representing the pixels from the Image Service displayed on the client. The length of the first dimension is the same as the number of bands in the layer. The length of the second dimension is height * width. The length of each band is the same. The pixels in each band are arranged row by row in this format: [p_00, p_10, p_20, ... p_10, p_11, ...] where p_xy is the pixel value at the column x and row y.

Example:
var pixels = imgLyr.pixelData.pixelBlock.pixels;
// Prints the number of bands in the layer
console.log(pixels.length);
// An array containing all the pixels in the first band
var band1 = pixels[0];
pixelType String

The pixel type.

Possible Values:"unknown"|"s8"|"s16"|"s32"|"u8"|"u16"|"u32"|"f32"|"f64"

statistics Object[]

An array of objects containing numeric statistical properties. Each object has the following specification if defined.

Properties:

noDataValue Number
optional

Value representing areas of no data.

Method Details

addData(planeData)

Adds another plane to the PixelBlock.

Parameters:
Specification:
planeData Object

The data to add to the PixelBlock.

Specification:
pixels Number[][]

A two dimensional array representing the pixels to add.

statistics Object[]

An array of objects containing numeric statistical properties. See statistics for details on the specifications of each object.

getAsRGBA(){Uint8ClampedArray}

Returns pixels and masks using a single array in bip format (e.g. [p_00_r, p_00_g, p_00_b, p_00_a, p_10_r, p_10_g, p_10_b, p_10_a, .....]). Use this method to get an unsigned 8 bit pixel array. The result can be used to create a webgl texture.

Returns:
TypeDescription
Uint8ClampedArrayAn unsigned 8-bit pixel array.
getAsRGBAFloat(){Float32Array}

Similar to getAsRGBA, but returns floating point data. The result can be used to create a webgl texture (OES_texture_float).

Returns:
TypeDescription
Float32ArrayA floating point array.
getPlaneCount(){Number}

Returns the plane band count of the PixelBlock.

Returns:
TypeDescription
NumberThe plane band count.
