Label | Explanation | Data Type |
Connection File Location
| The folder path where the connection file will be created. | Folder |
Connection File Name
| The name of the cloud storage connection file. | String |
Service Provider | Specifies the cloud storage service provider that will be used.
| String |
Bucket (Container) Name
| The name of the cloud storage container where the raster dataset will be stored. Many cloud providers also call it a bucket. | String |
Access Key ID (Account Name)
(Optional) | The access key ID string for the specific cloud storage type. It can also be the account name, as is the case with Azure. | String |
Secret Access Key (Account Key) (Optional) | The secret access key string to authenticate the connection to cloud storage. | Encrypted String |
Region (Environment) (Optional) | The region string for the cloud storage. If provided, the value must use the format defined by the cloud storage choice. The default is the selected cloud provider's default account. | String |
Service End Point (Optional) | The service endpoint (URI) of the cloud storage, such as oss-us-west-1.aliyuncs.com. If no value is provided, the default endpoint for the selected cloud storage type will be used. The CNAME redirected endpoint can also be used if needed. | String |
Provider Options (Optional) | The configuration options pertaining to the specific type of cloud service. Some services offer options, some do not. You only need to set this parameter if you want to turn on the options.
If multiple authentication parameters are provided, precedence is as follows:
In addition to the provider options listed above, the ARC_DEEP_CRAWL option can be used with all the service providers. If True, it is used to identify CRFs with no extension and cloud-enabled raster products in the cloud. This is operation intensive and it is recommended that you set this option to False for faster catalog browsing and crawling. The default value is False. Custom token vending services—such as Planetary Computer's data collection, for example—can be authenticated using the ARC_TOKEN_SERVICE_API (URL of the token vendor) and ARC_TOKEN_OPTION_NAME (type of token from the service provider) provider options. Note:The GDAL_DISABLE_READDIR_ON_OPEN option is available with all the service providers. To improve the performance of loading cloud-based rasters, this option is set to NO by default. If the raster resides in a folder that contains more than 30,000 items, set this option to YES. | Value Table |
Folder
(Optional) | The folder in the Bucket (Container) Name parameter value where the raster dataset will be stored. | String |
Authentication (Optional) | The connection name of OAuth 2.0 authentication. A valid connection needs to be configured in the Options dialog box on the Authentication tab. | String |
