Raster Tools Resample
This tool alters the raster geodata by changing the cell size and resampling method. The tool uses the standard ArcGIS Resample (Data Management) tool. For more detailed help see ESRI Help for the ‘Resample (Data Management)’ tool.
-
TIP: The output data set will remain in the same projection as the input.
-
TIP: Note that output grid will not be clipped to the ‘Processing Extent’ set in Geoprocessing > Environment. If the input grid is in the same projection as that set in the Geoprocessing > Environment then the grid will ‘snap to raster’ and the lower right corner of the output raster dataset will be the same as the lower right corner of the Processing Extent, but the left and top extents may be larger, but the grid will be aligned to the ‘snap raster’ setting.
Table for Rasters: This is the input table, usually the results table generated by the Geodata > Search tool, but it can be any table with a field containing the full path to the rasters you want to clip. If the Input Table is a DBF, or a table in an ESRI File Geodatabase, then you can select a subset of rows in ArcMap and only those rows will be processed by the tool.
Field for Raster: Select the field from the 'Table for Rasters' that contains the full path to the raster items you want to resample.
Resampling Method: The resampling algorithm to be used. The default is NEAREST. Select from: • NEAREST — Nearest neighbour assignment • BILINEAR — Bilinear interpolation • CUBIC — Cubic convolution • MAJORITY — Majority resampling
Cell Size: The cell size of the new raster using an existing raster dataset or specify its width (x) and height (y). You can specify the cell size in 3 different ways: • Using a single number specifying a square cell size. • Using two numbers that specify the X and Y cell size, which is space delimited. • Using the path of a raster dataset from which the square cell size will be imported.
Format for output rasters: Raster format for output geodata. You can choose from: Esri Grid, img (ERDAS IMAGINE) or tif (GeoTIFF). If you select a file geodatabase for the Result Workspace then the output format will default to ‘Esri Grid’. When storing your raster geodata to a JPEG file, a JPEG 2000 file, a TIFF file, or a geodatabase, you can specify a compression type and compression quality within the ‘Environment Settings’. Output Workspace: This is the location for the Grid Garage results table containing the list of geodata processed by the tool as well as any data outputs. If the tool encounters any errors when processing the input geodata then a second results table will be generated, with a ‘_FAIL’ suffix, listing the input geodata that failed and any ESRI error messages.
If you have set the ArcGIS ‘Workspace' parameter in the Geoprocessing > Environment Settings then this path will be used as the default. You can use this default path or click the folder button to select a new output location which can be a folder or File Geodatabase. If you specify a folder then the Results Table will be written to a comma-delimited (CSV) text file, if you specify a File Geodatabase it will be written as a Geodatabase Table.
Result Table Name: You can choose to use the default table name or specify a different name for the Grid Garage results table. The Grid Garage results table reports on a range of different properties for each of the geodata items in the 'Table for Geodata' input table. See the Grid Garage User Manual for a description of all the properties reported on.
If the tool encounters any errors when processing any of the geodata then a second results table will be generated, with a ‘_FAIL’ suffix, listing the input geodata that failed and any ESRI error messages. If you choose a folder for the Output Workspace then the result table will be written to a comma-delimited (CSV) text file which will not allow you to select rows for processing when using the table as input for other Grid Garage Tools.
Result Table file name: The default name will always take the form of ‘ResampleRasterTool_date_time’, where ‘date’ and ‘time’ are the date and time that the tool was run.
Output File Workspace (optional): If you want the output geodata files to be saved in a different location to the ‘Output Workspace’ you can select a new location (folder or File Geodatabase, depending on the output file type). The result tables will still be written to the ‘Output Workspace’ specified above.
Output Filename Prefix (optional): Any text you enter in this input box will be added as a prefix (at the beginning) for all output file names.
Output Filename Suffix (optional): Any text you enter in this input box will be added as a suffix (at the end) for all output file names.
