deegreeTools

1. General Information

The tools described on this page are mostly command line based tools for deegree2.
If you are interested in the GUI based deegree configuration tool, please go to the ConfigTool page.

1.1. Command Line Structure

Certain aspects of usage are the same for all deegree command line tools.

The overall command line call is something like this:

• java -cp list-of-libraries JavaClass list-of-parameters

java

• If you have set your system variable to point to your java folder, then it is enough to write: java
  Otherwise you need to write the full path to your java folder: /path/to/java

-cp list-of-libraries

• The classpath variable (cp) needs to contain the deegree2.jar plus a large number of other libraries varying from tool to tool.
  Please also read Preparations for some more important details.

JavaClass

• The JavaClass for a specific tool needs to be specified with its full package name, starting with "org.deegree."
  Details will be given in the description for each tool.

list-of-parameters

• Some tools need specific values for processing. These values are passed to the tool by adding "-parameter1 value1 -parameter2 value2" and so on at the end of the command line. There are mandatory parameters which need to be set, and optional parameters which may be omitted. Details are provided in the description for each tool.

1.2. Preparations

1. Create a working folder for your deegree tools (for example: "/home/deegree/tools/")

2. Download the nightly deegree2.jar and put it into this working folder.

3. Download all necessary libraries (e.g. *.jar files) and put them into your working folder (but no subfolders please!)

   You can get the libraries from the lib folder in the deegree SVN

If you are running the deegree command line tools with a deegree2.jar that was built by using ant (as the nightly build), it is not necessary to list all the libraries, as they are referenced by the deegree2.jar itself. This will reduce the size of the command drastically.

• On Linux

  java -cp .:lib/deegree2.jar:very-long-list-of-many-more-libraries javaClass list-of-parameters

  can be reduced to

  java -cp .:lib/deegree2.jar javaClass list-of-parameters

Of course you can also compile the sources yourself and create a deegree2.jar by calling ant build-lib. Please refer to the Deployment page for details.

2. DataStoreTools

Tools for setting up WFS datastores.

• DBSchemaToDatastoreConf : Create a deegree WFS datastore configuration from a database table or an ESRI shape file

• SchemaAnnotator : Annotate a GML application schema with default mapping for table and column names

• DDLGenerator : Create a deegree WFS datastore configuration from a database table or an ESRI shape file

3. RasterTools

• RasterTreeBuilder : Generating image pyramids out of georeferenced image collections

• RasterTreeUpdater : Updates a subset of an already existing deegree raster pyramid

• ArcInfo2Tiff : converts an ArcInfo raster file (text format) into a tiff image

• ArcInfo2xyz : converts an ArcInfo raster file (text format) into its XYZ representation

• Text2Tiff : converts geodata and special values from a simple text file format to a .tiff image

• SimpleText2Tiff : converts a xyz-text file covering a regular grid into a tiff image

• OracleGeoRasterImporter : imports a georeferenced image into Oracle 10g GeoRaster Database

• OracleGeoRasterExporter : exports an image from Oracle 10g GeoRaster Database

4. ShapeTools

• IndexShapeFile : application that can be used to index an ESRI shape files

• AVL2SLD : converts ESRI *.avl files to OGC SLD 1.0.0 documents

• GML2Shape_new : converts a GML document into an ESRI shape file

• Shape2GML_new : converts an ESRI shape file into a GML document

• ShapefileMerger : merges two shape files sharing the same schema into one

• GenericSQLShapeImporter : imports an ESRI shape file into a none geospatial database to be used with deegree WFS

5. WMSTools

• WFS2WMS : creates a deegree WMS 1.1.1 configuration from the feature types of a WFS 1.1.0 capabilities document

• WMS2WMC : creates a Web Map Context 1.0.0 document from a WMS 1.1.1 capabilities document

• MapServer2DeegreeWMS : creates a deegree WMS configuration from a MapServer map file

• SLDHarmonizer : changes SLD files to be more usable by deegree WMS

6. SecurityTools

• DRMAccess : enables deegree sercurity administration using command line calls

• ActiveDirectoryImporter : synchronizes the User and Group instances stored in a SecurityManager with an ActiveDirectory-Server

• WMSLayerImporter : adds all requestable layers of a WMS into deegree's user and rights management system

• WFSFeatureTypeImporter : adds all requestable layers of a WFS into deegree's user and rights management system

7. 3DTools

following tools are more or less work in progress; so do not expect everything will work as expected

• CityGML2KML : converts a CityGML (Building) document into a KML document

• CityGML2Shape : converts a CityGML (Building) document into an ESRI shape file

• View3DFile : displays a 3D-Shapefile or a CityGML document

8. CRSTools

Tools and utility classes for easy accessing the crs api:

• DemoCRSTransform (org.deegree.tools.srs.!DemoCRSTransform): tool for transforming coordinate pair or a file containing pairs

• org.deegree.tools.srs.PolynomialParameterCreator: Create the parameters for a direct Polynomial transformation

• org.deegree.tools.srs.SRSInfo: output all available crs's and/or check if a given crs is available

• org.deegree.tools.srs.TransformRasterFile: transform a raster file.

• org.deegree.tools.srs.TransformShapeFile: transform a shape file.
