Corridor (Spatial Analyst Tools)

Summary

Calculates the sum of accumulative costs for two input accumulative cost rasters.

Legacy:

This tool is deprecated and will be removed in a future release.

The Least Cost Corridor tool provides enhanced functionality or performance.

Usage

  • While any two rasters can be used for the input, to obtain a meaningful result they should be unaltered accumulative cost output rasters.

  • The order of the two inputs is irrelevant.

  • When the output raster format is .crf, this tool supports the Pyramid raster storage environment. Pyramids will be created in the output by default. For any other output format, this environment is not supported, and pyramids will not be created.

  • See Analysis environments and Spatial Analyst for additional details on the geoprocessing environments that apply to this tool.

Parameters

Label Explanation Data type

Input cost distance raster 1

The first input distance raster.

It should be an accumulated cost distance output from a distance tool such as Cost Distance or Path Distance.

Raster Layer

Input cost distance raster 2

The second input distance raster.

It should be an accumulated cost distance output from a distance tool such as Cost Distance or Path Distance.
