Object Merge Node for Copernicus COPs Aug. 11, 2024, 8:44 a.m.

netlander
a node that allows import of output from another node in the same network (or even another SOP network).

Is there an equivalent node in the new Copernicus context?



This isn't a great workaround, and I've not stress tested, but it may be of some help.
Where I have a model already set up with masks and attributes in SOPs which I know I want to reuse a lot in my COPs network, I have been trying this out



- Create subnet from my selected nodes
(usually everything from sopimport > rasterize setup > rasterize geo, but it might include essential remaps of an attribute etc)

-add an appropriate entry, for each Output I need exposed, in to the Parameter View of that subnet

-add an Output node inside the network and connect each attribute

-if I have any other nodes I've used for clamping or remaps etc that are inside and I want easy access to, I add those via Edit Parameter Interface

-Create a Reference Copy (in case I alter my sopimport or output type) of that subnet where I need to plug in my masks

The only issue is that if I decide I need to create more outputs on my Subnet later, this is not automatically added to my referenced versions


I tried using a File node with an op: reference to another node with useful outputs via op:/stage/copnet1/border_MSK/
but that doesn't appear to work
