Do i load from my filesystem, or from Data Sources|Satellite Imagery?
Load the image in from the file system through the Files Chooser. In the Field Selector, you should see a Field that has the VisAD MathType. Then Select the Formulas Data Source and if there is no Imagery category, then the formula will be under System. We changed the categorization recently, but perhaps it was after 2.3.
I tried ImageRGBDisplayable in my code and I still see nothing, using a MapProjectionDisplayJ2D built with no-args constructor.
Okay, see below.
I changed my code from ImageRGBDisplayable.setData( myField ); to ImageRGBDisplayable.loadData( myField );
setData is the generic method that just puts the data into the DataReference. loadData also sets up the appropriate ScalarMaps.
and now I DO see my image. I got the idea from the idv class ImageControl, which maintains an ImageRGBDisplayable instance and calls loadData on it.
That's a good model to follow.
Alas the original color scheme does not seem to have been preserved, as it was in the case of the VisAD code, i.e. using just Visad objects, none from IDV. How do I get my ImageRGBDisplayable to preserve my source color palette?
You neeed to call setColorPalette with the gray color table. Something like:imageDisplayable.setColorPalette(visad.BaseColorControl.initTableGreyWedge(new float[3][255]);
If you used the constructor to include alpha, change the 3 to a 4 in the previous call.
