Package org.geotools.data.coverage.grid Description

This package contains the support classes necessary to implement a GridCoverageExchange and the data formats, such as ArcGrid or Geotiff. The StreamGridCoverageExchange is an example of a GridCoverageExchange.

The AbstractGridFormat class is a helper class to make implementing GridFormats simpler.

Currently the StreamGridCoverageExchange is hardcoded with only the ArcGrid format. In the future a plug-in framework will be added so the formats can be found dynamically.
