How to get value from a Raster?

Abdul_HameedKhorami1

I have a Raster precipitation, lets say for Washington state and I have vector study area of that state. I want to get the precipitation in mm/year and the information is in my raster( precipitation) I tried to clip my raster to my study area and now the next step is to get precipitation in mm/year in min , max or average. Can anyone help me how get that ? one way is to right click on Raster for property and there I can see the max , min and average but I am not about this.

That can be constructed for an assignment perhaps to avoid the extra step of accounting for the z-factor needed to translate to feet. The point I made is that the discussion on the plausibility of the values is moot.

In the Spatial Analyst tool box under Zonal there are the Zonal Statistics and Zonal Statistics as Table. This summarise various stats (mean, min, max whatever) per zone defined as polygons or another raster.

There is also the GetRasterProperties_management tool in the data management toolbox.

Do you want to calculate the statistics based on the boundary polygon? Then, you could choose Zonal Satistics with the appropriate Statistics Type. How Zonal Statistics works—Help | ArcGIS for Desktop

the result which I am after for this problem is mm/year. so as you can see the picture, I took the average and you can also see the statistic sum of that. I converted from meter( because my raster is in meter) to mm and it gives me very big data 2985000 mm which I am not sure if it can give me correct result.

No I just want to get the precipitation of a state in mm/year.

JayantaPoddar

Are you sure the precipitation values in the Raster are in meters? Because a 7-digit number in mm/year seems to be too high to be true. I think the values are already in mm/year.

Don't confuse with the spatial resolution of the Raster (which could be in meters).

***Why I think so? The wettest place in India has an avg. annual rainfall of <12000 mm.

given the file path noted in the dialog... it appears that it is a lab assignment, so perhaps the seemingly large values are not implausible... but constructed ... and if it is washington state perhaps, it wouldn't surprise me that the z values were not meters but feet.

I respect you very much sir if you can you use simple English it will help learners to understand it quickly. I used google translation for " plausibility of the values is moot" and I got the point. I am also dont get it that why one of my professor use very technical words and expressions! the point is to understand the topic and learn it.
