Overview
The purpose of this RFC is to allow MapGuide to stylize the elevation data, which configured surface style in its layer definition.
Motivation
MapGuide cannot stylize the elevation layer, such as DEM and GeoTIFF file, configured by the following kind of layer definition with surface style:
<LayerDefinition xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="LayerDefinition-1.0.0.xsd" version="1.0.0">
<GridLayerDefinition> <ResourceId>Library://Publish/Data/Raster_1.FeatureSource</ResourceId>
<FeatureName>rasters:davenport</FeatureName>
<Geometry>Image</Geometry>

</Color>
</ColorRule>
</ColorStyle>
<RebuildFactor>1</RebuildFactor>
</GridScaleRange>
</GridLayerDefinition>
Currently, MapGuide do not have the stylization mechanism for grid surface data. So, in this release, we will make MapGuide has the ability to stylize the elevation layer. The user would see the stylized elevation data, like Figure 1 in MapGuide in the future, not the Figure 2, which is the current status for elevation data in MapGuide.

Proposed Solution
Modify Stylization project to support the stylization of the elevation data with surface style. Here, introduce some key classes for stylizing elevation data, also called grid data. They are GridStylizer, GridData, GridStyleHandler, GridColorHandler and GridApplyStatusReporter.
GridStylizer
This class only for stylization with grid data and grid styles. GridStylizer takes a grid, a grid color style, and a grid surface style. Then it applies the color style on the grid and writes the result into the color band of the grid. Moreover, it also applies the surface style on the grid and writes the result into the elevation band of the grid.
class GridStylizer
{
public:
///<summary>

GridStyleHandler
Class GridStyleHandler is the base class of all the grid style handlers. This class provides the common interface to visit each pixel of the band and do the different operations, such as to stylize the band.
class GridStyleHandler
{
public:
///<summary>
/// Function to clear the data info of the handler.
///</summary>
virtual void Clear() = 0;
///<summary>
/// Function to visit each pixel.
///</summary>
virtual void Visit(unsigned int x, unsigned int y) = 0;
///<summary>
/// Finished visiting all the pixels
///</summary>
virtual void Finished(bool bSuccessful) {bSuccessful;}
///<summary>
/// Set GridStatusReporter
///</summary>
virtual void SetStatusReporter(GridStatusReporter *pReporter) = 0;
///<summary>
/// Function to visit all pixels.
///</summary>
virtual bool Visit() = 0;
};
There are several derived classes of GridStyleHandler:
GridStyleColorHandler is used to handle the MdfModel::GridColorStyle.
GridStyleSurfaceColorHandler is used to set the transparent color to the default color. And it also set the invalid pixel to the default color.
GridStyleSurfaceHandler is used to handle the MdfModel::GridSurfaceStyle.
GridColorHandler
This base class provides the uniform interface for getting the color on each pixel when stylizing the band
class GridColorHandler
{
public:

/// Function to initialize the GridColorHandler object.
///</summary>
///<param name = "pRules">
/// The rules includes the detail info.
///</param>

static GridColorNullHandler* CreateNullHandler(const MdfModel::RuleCollection *pRules, const GridData *pGrid);
};
There are several derived classes of GridColorHandler:
GridColorBandsHandler is used to handle the situation when the GridColor's type is Bands. It gets the channel data from the three ChannelBands and merge them to a color value.
GridColorBandHandler is used to handle the situation when the GridColor's type is Band. It gets the band's value and return it as the color value.
GridColorNullHandler is used to handle the situation when there is no rule.
GridColorThemeHandler is used to handle the situtation when stylizer themes a band according to the aspect, slope, or height value.It calculates the geometry value and searchs the corresponding color in its generated hash table.
GridApplyStatusReporter
An implementation of GridStatusReporter. This class will delegate all the status change events to the stylizer's reactors.
class GridApplyStatusReporter : public GridStatusReporter
{
public:
///<summary>
/// Initializes this class by the three arguments.
///</summary>
///<param name="stylizer">The the stylizer which is applying style.</param>
///<param name="pixelCount">The count of the total pixels of the grid.</param>
void Init(GridStylizer *stylizer, double pixelCount);
///<summary>
/// Indicates the transaction has been started.
/// This class will notify the stylizer's reactors that
/// the stylizer begins to apply the styles.
///</summary>
virtual void Begin();
///<summary>
/// Indicates the transaction has been finished successfully.
/// This class will notify the stylizer's reactors that
/// the stylizer has finished applying styles.
///</summary>
virtual void Commit();
///<summary>
/// Indicates the transaction encountered some error and has been terminated.
/// This class will notify the stylizer's reactors that
/// the stylizer failed to apply styles for some unknown reasons.
///</summary>
virtual void Rollback();
///<summary>
/// Call this function when finishing a step.
/// And check the returned value.
/// If the returned value is true, that means the Step() function has been handled successfully.
/// Otherwise, false means encountering some exceptions.
///</summary>
virtual bool Step(int stepSize = 1);
///<summary>
/// If isTerminate is TRUE, then Step() will return FALSE to let the stylizer stop applying.
/// It just sets a flag. And the flag will show its influence when
/// calling Step() next time.
///</summary>
void SetTerminate(bool isTerminate);
///<summary>
/// Returns m_isTerminate.
///</summary>
bool IsTerminate() const;
}
Some new classes will be introduced to handle Band, Color, ChannelBand, Theme and etc individually.

Test Plan
Add some elevation data,such as DEM/TIFF file and layer definition with surface style,like
<LayerDefinition xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="LayerDefinition-1.0.0.xsd" version="1.0.0">

<Band>1</Band>
<Azimuth>45</Azimuth>

<Filter>(Height(1) > -1.7976931348623158e+308) AND (Height(1) < 1.7976931348623158e+308)</Filter>

</Color>
</ColorRule>
</ColorStyle>
<RebuildFactor>1</RebuildFactor>

</GridLayerDefinition>
to a MapGuide server, the elevation layer should display, like Figure1 in MapGuide studio.
