               throws IOException

Retrieves the footprint. If a feature is specified, return the footprint from the current granule representative feature as it comes from the index.

Parameters:

feature - the granule representative feature (if any). Specifying a null feature will return a default footprint (this is used in general for single-granule stores)

Returns:

Throws:

IOException

getSidecars

default List<File> getSidecars(SimpleFeature feature)
                        throws IOException

Returns the list of sidecar files defining masks for the specified feature. The default implementation returns an empty list.

Parameters:

feature - the granule representative feature (if any)
