Raster Calculator

Builds and executes a single Map Algebra expression using Python syntax in a calculator-like interface.

1.    Map Algebra expression

The Map Algebra expression you want to run.

The expression is composed by specifying the inputs, values, operators, and tools to use. You can type in the expression directly or use the buttons and controls to help you create it.

  1. The Layers and variables list identifies the datasets available to use in the Map Algebra expression.
  2. The buttons are used to enter numerical values and operators into the expression. The ( and ) buttons can be used to apply parentheses to the expression.
  3. A list of commonly used tools is provided for you.

2.    Output raster

The output raster resulting from the Map Algebra expression.

1. Input raster or constant value

The input raster for which to calculate the absolute values.

In order to use a number as an input for this parameter, the cell size and extent must first be set in the environment.

2. Output raster

The output raster.

The cell values are the absolute value of the cells of the input raster.

 

Abs

Calculates the absolute value of the cells in a raster.

Exp

Calculates the base e exponential of the cells in a raster.

Exp10

Calculates the base 10 exponential of the cells in a raster.Input raster or constant value

Exp2

Calculates the base 2 exponential of the cells in a raster.

Float

Converts each cell value of a raster into a floating-point representation.

Int

Converts each cell value of a raster to an integer by truncation.

Ln

Calculates the natural logarithm (base e) of cells in a raster.

Log10

Calculates the base 10 logarithm of cells in a raster.

Log2

Calculates the base 2 logarithm of cells in a raster.

Negate

Changes the sign (multiplies by -1) of the cell values of the input raster on a cell-by-cell basis.

Round Down

Returns the next lower integer value, just represented as a floating point, for each cell in a raster.

Round Up

Returns the next higher integer value, just represented as a floating point, for each cell in a raster.

Square

Calculates the square of the cell values in a raster.

Square Root

Calculates the square root of the cell values in a raster.

1. Input raster or constant value 1

The input whose values will be divided by the second input.

A number can be used as an input for this parameter, provided a raster is specified for the other parameter. To be able to specify a number for both inputs, the cell size and extent must first be set in the environment.

2. Input raster or constant value 2

The input whose values the first input are to be divided by.

A number can be used as an input for this parameter, provided a raster is specified for the other parameter. To be able to specify a number for both inputs, the cell size and extent must first be set in the environment.

3. Output raster

The output raster.

The cell values are the quotient of the first input raster (dividend) divided by the second input (divisor).

Divide

Divides the values of two rasters on a cell-by-cell basis.

Minus

Subtracts the value of the second input raster from the value of the first input raster on a cell-by-cell basis.

Mod

Finds the remainder (modulo) of the first raster when divided by the second raster on a cell-by-cell basis.

Plus

Adds (sums) the values of two rasters on a cell-by-cell basis.

Power

Raises the cell values in a raster to the power of the values found in another raster.

Times

Multiplies the values of two rasters on a cell-by-cell basis.
