Set Raster Properties (Data Management Tools)

Summary

Sets the data type, statistics, and NoData values on a raster or mosaic dataset.

Usage

  • You can define the statistics for a raster or mosaic dataset using this tool. Typically, you use this tool if you do not want statistics calculated. You can set the minimum, maximum, standard deviation, and mean values for each band. These statistics can be read from an .xml file.

  • The properties that can be set with this tool determine the default rendering settings in ArcGIS Pro, as well as statistics that are used by other tools.

    You can set the following properties:

    • Data Source Type—Define whether the cell values represent elevation or categorical data, or whether the values have been processed by other methods and do not require stretching when displaying the data.

    • Statistics Per Band—For each band, define the minimum, maximum, mean, and standard deviation values.

    • Bands for NoData Value—For each band, define a NoData value.

Parameters

Label Explanation Data type

Input Raster

The raster or mosaic dataset with the properties that will be set.

Mosaic Layer ; Raster Layer

Data Source Type

(Optional)

Specifies the type of imagery in the raster.

  • Generic—The raster does not have a specified data type.

  • Elevation—The raster contains elevation data.

  • Thematic—The raster contains thematic data, which has discrete values, such as land cover.

  • Processed—The raster has been color balanced.

  • Scientific—The data has scientific information and will be displayed with the blue to red color ramp by default.

  • Vector UV—The data is a two-band raster that contains a U and a V component of vector field data.

  • Magnitude and Direction—The data is a two-band raster that contains the magnitude and direction of vector field data.

  • Date—The data has date information and will be displayed in date format.

  • SAR—The raster contains synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data.

String

Statistics Per Band

(Optional)

The bands and values for the minimum, maximum, mean, and standard deviation.

Value table columns:

  • Band Index—The band index.

  • Min—The minimum value for the statistics.

  • Max—The maximum value for the statistics.

  • Mean—The average value for the statistics.

  • Std Dev—The standard deviation value for the statistics.

Value Table

Import Statistics From File

(Optional)

An .xml file that contains the statistics.

Bands for NoData Value

(Optional)

The NoData value for each band. Each band can have a unique NoData value defined, or the same value can be specified for all bands.

Click the NoData drop-down arrow, choose a band from the list, and click the Add button to add the band to the table. Then enter a value or multiple values. If you choose multiple NoData values, separate each value with a space.

Value table columns:

  • Band Index—The band index.

  • NoData Value—The NoData value.

Value Table

Key Properties

(Optional)

The natively supported properties. The data used may have additional properties not included in the following list. The properties are not case sensitive.

  • AcquisitionDate

  • BandName

  • BlockName

  • CloudCover

  • DatasetTag

  • FlowDirection

  • Footprint

  • HighCellSize

  • LowCellSize

  • MinCellSize

  • MaxCellSize

  • OffNadir

  • ParentRasterType

  • ParentTemplate

  • PerspectiveX

  • PerspectiveY

  • PerspectiveZ

  • ProductName

  • RadianceBias

  • RadianceGain

  • ReflectanceBias

  • ReflectanceGain

  • Segmented

  • SensorAzimuth

  • SensorElevation

  • SensorName

  • SolarIrradiance

  • SourceBandIndex

  • SunAzimuth

  • SunElevation

  • ThermalConstant_K1

  • ThermalConstant_K2

  • VerticalAccuracy

  • WavelengthMin

  • WavelengthMax

Value table columns:

  • Name—The name of the key property.

  • Value—The value for the key property.

Value Table

Multidimensional information

(Optional)

The dimensional information for the raster dataset. Setting dimensional information will convert a dimensionless raster into a multidimensional raster.

If the dimension is time, the dimension name must be StdTime. The format for time is either year-month-day (2021-10-01) or year-month-dayThh:mm:ss (2021-10-01T01:00:00).

To define a variable with both time and elevation, add the variable with time first; then add the same variable with the z-dimension.

Value table columns:

  • Variable—The name of the variable

  • Dimension—The name of the dimension.

  • Dimension minimum—The minimum dimension value.

  • Dimension maximum—The maximum dimension value.
