Failed to create raster dataset because of out of memory

[nabdelwahab]

I am trying to run the dem_parameters.py script, however I get this error when it tries to fill:

ERROR 999999: Error executing function.
Failed to create raster dataset
Failed because of out of memory
Failed to execute (Fill).

I have a 4GB DEM at 1 meter resolution.
Python memory use only reaches 600MB of memory and I have 9GB available.

Any idea what could be happening or what I might be doing wrong?

Thank you in advance
Nada

Hi @nsydro
I think this maybe caused by Arcgis. If you use a 32-bit application, then the limit RAM is about 800Mb. You need to try a 64-bit geoprocessing application. Or you can split your file.
