ISpatialReferenceFactory.ExportESRISpatialReferenc eToPRJFile

SenthilkumarM_S

Hi All

I am new to ArcGIS Programming. Right now we are working with Raster Image Georeferencing. I need to create PRJ files for every Raster Image. I am not getting the Method for Using ISpatialReferenceFactory.ExportESRISpatialReferenceToPRJFile. Using this Function i need to create the PRJ file for selected Raster Image. Please help to slove this Issues.

Thanks

Thanks Frank Perks

Now the script is working fine.

Hi Frank Perks

The script is working and its creating PRJ files for each files. but i am getting below error while opening the PRJ files in ARC Catalog.

Error:
Edit Failed

Failed to create the Spatial reference system from the specified PRJ file. the input is not a workstation PRJ files.

Thanks

Theres a bug. in exporttostring() for spatial references. ironically using exporttostring() on a featurepoly, results in a correct projection string!

import os
import sys
import arcgisscripting

def fix_proj_str(proj):
    """
        Correct a projection strings
        
        exporttostring uses single quotes instead of double! 
        
        BUG!
    """
    return proj.replace("'", '"')

if __name__ == '__main__':
    gp = arcgisscripting.create()
    gp.workspace = r"CHANGE THIS TO YOUR PATH"
    ds_list = gp.listrasters()
    for ds in iter(lambda: ds_list.next(), None):
        prj_str = fix_proj_str(gp.describe(ds).SpatialReference.exporttostring())
        open(os.path.join(gp.workspace, '%s.prj' % os.path.splitext(ds)[0]), 'w').write(prj_str)

Same deal as before (change gp.workspace line). This creates the correct projection files. I double checked.

Hi Frank Perks

I am working with Georeferenced JPG, PNG and TIF Files and i need to create PRJ for individual files with its respective name. I have tried the first method. while running Python i am getting "IndexError: list index out of range". But i don't know C++. so i have not tried. can you give me the detail VBA code, that will be great for me.

Thanks

For the python error:

import os
import sys
import arcgisscripting
if __name__ == '__main__':
    gp = arcgisscripting.create()
    gp.workspace = r"PUT YOUR FOLDER HERE"
    ds_list = gp.listrasters()
    for ds in iter(lambda: ds_list.next(), None):
        prj_str = gp.describe(ds).SpatialReference.exporttostring()        
        open(os.path.join(gp.workspace, '%s.prj' % os.path.splitext(ds)[0]), 'w').write(prj_str)

Okay lets say i have the files cat.jpg, mat.tif, hat.png, etc. and i want to make projection strings out of them. All of these files are in "C:\drseuss\rasters" (this path will be where your rasters are located, for this example i will use what i have written here)

Before running the script we need to change this line:
gp.workspace = r"PUT YOUR FOLDER HERE"

To something that makes sense (always use forword slashes, it'll make stuff easier)
gp.workspace = r"C:/drseuss/rasters"

So it will look like this:

import os
import sys
import arcgisscripting
if __name__ == '__main__':
    gp = arcgisscripting.create()
    gp.workspace = r"C:/drseuss/rasters"
    ds_list = gp.listrasters()
    for ds in iter(lambda: ds_list.next(), None):
        prj_str = gp.describe(ds).SpatialReference.exporttostring()        
        open(os.path.join(gp.workspace, '%s.prj' % os.path.splitext(ds)[0]), 'w').write(prj_str)

Now save the script, and run it!

Now once its done: you will now have cat.prj, mat.prj, hat.prj files in C:/drseuss/rasters folder.

I unfortunately don't know any sort of VBA. Try the modified script above. if that doesn't work them hopefully someone can convert the C++ code to VBA

Hi Frank Perks

I have tried you method, but Still I am not getting the PRJ Files. can you give me the details code for that.

Thanks

Senthilkumar

Did you try both methods?

Can you give me a bit more details, what API are you using, are there are hresult failure codes?

Also what kind of rasters are you using this on?

Hi,

If you just need to create a prj for every raster you can do it very very easily in python:

"""
    Takes a workspace and creates prj files for rasters 
    sys.argv[1]         ds dir
    -Frank Perks
"""
import os
import sys
import arcgisscripting
if __name__ == '__main__':
    gp = arcgisscripting.create()
    gp.workspace = sys.argv[1]
    ds_list = gp.listrasters()
    for ds in iter(lambda: ds_list.next(), None):
        prj_str = gp.describe(ds).SpatialReference.exporttostring()        
        open(os.path.join(gp.workspace, '%s.prj' % ds), 'w').write(prj_str)

This will create a .prj file for each raster in the directory you have given it.

If your looking for actual arcobjects code, then all i have is C++

HRESULT ExportPrjToFile(__in const IRasterPtr& ipSrcRaster, __in const ATL::CComBSTR& outputPath)
{
    HRESULT hr;
    IRasterPropsPtr ipRastProps = ipSrcRaster;
    ISpatialReferencePtr ipSrcSp;
    hr = pRastProps->get_SpatialReference(&ipSrcSp);
    if(FAILED(hr))
    {
        std::cerr << "[ERROR]: Cannot extract Spatial Reference from Raster" << std::endl;
        return hr;
    }
    
    ISpatialReferenceFactoryPtr ipSpFact(CLSID_SpatialReferenceEnvironment);
    
    // Get Spatial Ref store to file
    return ipSpFact->ExportESRISpatialReferenceToPrjFile(outputPath, ipSrcSp);
    
}

There might be a few syntax mistakes in that code, since i did it from memory. I skipped the steps about how to get an IRaster. Heres the overall overview of what you need:

0. Initialize ArcObjects
1. IRasterWorkspaceFactory creates a IRasterWorkspace in the specified directory
2. IWorkspace->OpenRasterDataset() creates IRasterDataset
3. IRasterDataset->CreateFullRaster() creates the IRaster
4. IRasterProps = IRaster
5. IRasterProps->get_SpatialRefernece() gets spatial reference object ISpatialRefernence
6. Create ISpatialReferenceFactory
7. ISpatialReferenceFactory->ExportESRISpatialReferenceToPrjFile(ISpatialReference)
8. Go to set 1 keep looping till all rasters are done
