Extract by Attributes

Extracts the cells of a raster based on a logical query.



1. Input raster

The input raster from which cells will be extracted.

2. Where clause

A logical expression that selects a subset of raster cells.

The Where clause follows the general form of an SQL expression.It can be entered directly, for example, VALUE > 100. To use a text attribute field, use single quotes around the values, for example, landuse = 'urban'. It can also be created in the Query Builder dialog box that results from clicking on the SQL button.

3. Output raster

The output raster containing the cell values extracted from the input raster.

Extract by Polygon

Extracts the cells of a raster based on a polygon by specifying the polygon's vertices.



1. Input raster

The input raster from which cells will be extracted.

2. Polygon

A polygon (or polygons) defined by a series of vertices (x,y point coordinates) that identify the area of the input raster to be extracted. The last coordinate of a polygon part should be the same as the first in order to close a polygon.

When specifying multiple polygons, they must be contiguous. Enter the series of coordinates polygon by polygon. Be sure to close each part by defining the last coordinate the same as the first one.

The points are in the same map units as the input raster.

3. Output raster

The output raster containing the cell values extracted from the input raster.

4. Extraction area (optional)

Identifies whether to extract cells inside or outside the input polygon.

  1. INSIDE—A keyword specifying that only the cells inside the input polygon should be selected and written to the output raster. All cells outside the polygon will receive NoData values on the output raster.
  2. OUTSIDE—A keyword specifying that the cells outside the input polygon should be selected and written to the output raster. All cells inside the polygon will receive NoData.

Extract by Rectangle

Extracts the cells of a raster based on a rectangle by specifying the rectangle's extent.



1. Input raster

The input raster from which cells will be extracted.

2. Extent

A rectangle that defines the area to be extracted.

Left and Bottom define the lower-left coordinate of the area to be extracted, with Right and Top defining the upper-right coordinate.

The coordinates are specified in the same map units as the input raster.

The coordinates are specified in the same map units as the input raster.

3. Output raster

The output raster containing the cell values extracted from the input raster.

4. Extraction area (optional)

Identifies whether to extract cells inside or outside the input rectangle.

  1. INSIDE— A keyword specifying that the cells inside the input rectangle should be selected and written to the output raster. All cells outside the rectangle will receive NoData values on the output raster.
  2. OUTSIDE—A keyword specifying that the cells outside the input rectangle should be selected and written to the output raster. All cells inside the rectangle will receive NoData values on the output raster.

Extract Multi Values to Points

Extracts cell values at locations specified in a point feature class from one or more rasters and records the values to the attribute table of the point feature class.



1. Input point features

The input point features to which you want to add raster values.

2. Input rasters

The input raster (or rasters) values you want to extract based on the input point feature location.

Optionally, you can supply the name for the field to store the raster value. By default, a unique field name will be created based on the input raster dataset name.

3. Bilinear interpolation of values at point locations (optional)

Specifies whether or not interpolation will be used.

  1. Unchecked—No interpolation will be applied; the value of the cell center will be used. This is the default.
  2. Checked—The value of the cell will be calculated from the adjacent cells with valid values using bilinear interpolation. NoData values will be ignored in the interpolation unless all adjacent cells are NoData.

Sample

Creates a table that shows the values of cells from a raster, or set of rasters, for defined locations. The locations are defined by raster cells or by a set of points.

The input rasters can be two-dimensional or multidimensional. The structure of the output table changes when the input rasters are multidimensional.

2. Input location raster or point features

Data identifying positions at which you want a sample taken.

This can be a raster or a point feature dataset.

3. Output table

Output table holding the sampled cell values.

The format of the table is determined by the output location and path. By default, the output will be a geodatabase table. If the path is not in a geodatabase, the format is determined by the extension. If the extension is .dbf, it will be in dBASE format. If no extension is specified, the output will be an INFO table.
