Square (Spatial Analyst Tools)

Summary

Calculates the square of the cell values in a raster.

Illustration

Square illustration

OutRas = Square(InRas1)

Usage

  • Output values are floating point if the input values are floating point; if the input values are integer, the output values are integer.

  • If the input is a multiband raster, the output will be a multiband raster. The tool will perform the operation on each band in the input.

  • If the input is multidimensional raster data, all slices from all variables will be processed. The output will be a multidimensional raster in CRF format.

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

Parameters

Label Explanation Data type

Input raster or constant value

The input values to find the square of.

To use a number as an input for this parameter, the cell size and extent must first be set in the environment.
