Is there a simple way to expand the extent of an existing raster (using nodata values)?
I have explored the following:
Extending an existing raster extent.
Increasing raster extent by filling extent with no data using ArcGIS Desktop without Spatial Analyst? - Geographic Infor…
And I came across another posting (sorry, the link is not readily coming up) in which someone (Dan Patterson I think) recommended combining the starting (small) raster, and overlaying with another larger raster. Makes sense, and I have run the following:
# Expand the size of the data raster, using a NoData raster of the correct extent.
