will Raster Calculator ingnore null values?

DavidMedeiros

I have a stack of rasters (daily UV values for a year). I need a yearly average raster but my input daily rasters contain null values through out each raster at various locations.

If a cell stack has a null in it I still need the average of the remaining cells with real values, but not an average that counts the null cells for division. Will the Raster Calculator ignore the null value cells in the average or will it count that cell in the denominator value for the average function?

I see that Cell Statistics has an option to ignore null value cells, which reads like it would be what I want but their graphic example seems to suggest that what it does is ignore the entire cell stack if one cell is null.

Did you try the "DATA" option?

Hi guys,

The graphic is wrong and I've talked to the tool owner to have him update it. The tool, however, seems to be working as it should. See screenshot attached. I'm using 10.1 sp1 for this test.

Best,
Eric

Just saw this after posting above, thank you for your reply.

I thought I did but must have miss checked the box. It works as described, not as pictured, meaning the tool does in fact ignore individual cells of no data and not the entire stack of no data cells. ESRI should update the image to match.

and the other option yielded the same results?

I just ran a test with the DATA option on a set of three dummy rasters: value1, value2, and valueNull. The result for mean should be 1.5 if the null values are being ignored, instead I got an output raster of Nulls. So that mean it ignore the entire cell stack, not just the individual null cells.
