Usage

  • This raster analysis portal tool is available when you are signed in to an ArcGIS Enterprise portal that has ArcGIS Image Server configured for Raster Analysis. When the tool is run, ArcGIS Pro serves as a client and the processing occurs in the servers federated with ArcGIS Enterprise. The portal tool accepts layers from your portal as input and creates output in your portal.

    The input raster layer supports a layer from the portal, a URI or URL to an image service, or the output from the Make Image Server Layer tool. This tool does not support local raster data or layers.

  • Links are the sections of a stream channel connecting two successive junctions, a junction and the outlet, or a junction and the drainage divide.

  • The input stream raster can be created by thresholding the results of the Flow Accumulation tool.

    The stream raster linear network should be represented as values greater than or equal to one on a background of NoData.

Parameters

Label Explanation Data type

Input Stream Raster
