Often our data is more "complex" than we need it to be. It is useful to parse, reclassify, and/or aggregate our data.

• Clip Raster: cuts raster down to a bounding box.
• Max N/S & E/W extent of another layer (vector or raster) or manually defined.
• Different tool than vector clipping

• Reclassify: creates a new output based on a classification scheme.

• Mosaic: Combine multiple raster data sets into one.
• There are multiple approaches we can use.

• Mosaic: Combine multiple raster data sets into one.
• There are multiple approaches we can use.

• Euclidean Distance: use this tool to calculate distance from the nearest feature or raster layer.

When we have multiple raster layers and we want to combine them to form a new output.

• Easy, efficient overlay is a key advantage of the raster data model
• We have a few tools we can use for this

Weights inputs for suitability analysis or risk assessment.

• Inputs must be discrete numbers
• Manually define weights and scale

More general and flexible than weighted overlay.

• Outputs are more straightforward
• Because inputs are more explicit
• Can do weighted overlay among other tasks

Calculate statistics (mean, max, etc.) using zones (regions) and output desired statistic by zone.

• The zone can be either a raster or vector layer.
• Zonal Statistics as Table generates a table containing multiple statistics by zone.

These tools are specifically designed to analyze terrain surfaces (ie. Digital Elevation Models).

• However, they can be applied to other purposes in select applications
• Slope: calculates the slope of a terrain surface
• ie. the angle in degrees from a cell to it's "lowest" neighbor

These tools are specifically designed to analyze terrain surfaces (ie. Digital Elevation Models).

• However, they can be applied to other purposes in select applications
• Aspect: calculates the direction a slope is facing
• North, southeast, west northwest, etc.

ArcGIS Pro has an extensive toolkit of tools for more complex analyses.

• Many are beyond the scope of intro-level GIS

The Hydrology toolset can be used to calculate stream flow.

1. Use a DEM as an input
2. Fill "sinks"
3. Calculate flow direction
4. Run flow accumulation

Classify a raster.

• Supervised or unsupervised
