Calculate Z-value (Geostatistical Analyst Tools)

Summary

Uses the interpolation model in a geostatistical layer to predict a value at a single location.

Usage

This tool is generally used only in a model or in scripting.

Code sample

GACalculateZValue (Python window)

Predict a value at a location using a kriging geostatistical layer.

import arcpy
arcpy.env.workspace = "C:/gapyexamples/data"
outCZV = arcpy.ga.GACalculateZValue("C:/gapyexamples/data/Kriging.lyr",
                                    "-2000000 -50000")
print(outCZV)

GACalculateZValue (stand-alone script)

Predict a value at a location using a kriging geostatistical layer.

# Name: CalculateZValue_Example_02.py
# Description: Uses the interpolation model in a geostatistical
#              layer to predict a value at a single location.
# Requirements: Geostatistical Analyst extension

# Import system modules
import arcpy

# Set environment settings
arcpy.env.workspace = "C:/gapyexamples/data"

# Set local variables
inGALayer = "C:/gapyexamples/data/Kriging.lyr"
pointCoord = "-2000000 -50000"

# Run CalculateZValue
outCZV = arcpy.ga.GACalculateZValue(inGALayer, pointCoord)

# Print results
print(outCZV)
