Raster Data Analysis: - Cells (Pixels) - Cell Value

This document provides an overview of raster data analysis in ArcGIS, including the raster data model, attributes, converting between raster and vector data, and tools for raster analysis. It describes the ArcGIS Spatial Analyst extension for raster analysis and the Raster Calculator tool for performing map algebra expressions on multiple raster inputs. Finally, it provides examples of using the Raster Calculator for operations like reclassifying values, masking, zonal functions, and ordered weighted averaging.

Working with Nodata in RC


ISNULL: convert Nodata to a value
SETNULL: set cell value to Nodata
CON: conditional function
Examples
Replace Nodata with 0 in a DEM
con(isnull([dem]), 0, [dem])
Set slope > 15 to Nodata on the DEM
setnull([slope]> 15, [dem])
