sum the area of all pixel classes

sadiajame

I have a map with three different types of pixels 1,2 and 3 and these are for three different area counts. 1 corresponds to less than 607 pixels, 2 indicates 607 to 10,000 pixels, and 3 indicates > 10,000 pixels. 607 pixel is 15 acres and so class 2 and 3 would be more than 15 acres. I need to know how can I sum the area of all pixel classes?

Can zonal statistics would be helpful?

Please help!

If your raster is integer data type, you can open the attribute table and see the pixel count for each class. Otherwise, one of these tools should get you there:

Thank you for your time. But I have to create a map which is showing the area as acres as I have three categories. Can you help me with that?

I guess I don't understand the problem. If you know the number of pixels in each class, and you know the size of the pixel, then you can figure out the area of each class. But, perhaps that's not what you're after.

If it is a raster layer that you have, are you trying to convert it to a polygon layer?

The chances of getting that exact area back are minimal, so you really need to show what you have and why you need those exact values. Is it for an assignment?

Thank you for your input. Let me ask me question another time. I have 4 drainage raster dataset for the four states such as IA, WI, IN and MS. Raster files contain three categories of pixel (pixels 1,2 and 3 and these are for three different area counts. 1 corresponds to less than 607 pixels, 2 indicates 607 to 10,000 pixels, and 3 indicates > 10,000 pixels. 607 pixel is 15 acres and so class 2 and 3 would be more than 15 acres) and cell size of each raster is 10m. Yes, I have to create a 5 minute dataset that provides the area of the grid cell suitable for drainage, by summing the area in classes 1, 2 and 3. Then I have to create a fraction of grid cell map by dividing the sum by the grid cell area.

Can you please suggest me something on that.

-Thank you!

Let me clarify the question another time. I have 4 drainage raster dataset for the four states such as IA, WI, IN and MS. As you know they contain three categories of pixel (pixels 1,2 and 3 and these are for three different area counts. 1 corresponds to less than 607 pixels, 2 indicates 607 to 10,000 pixels, and 3 indicates > 10,000 pixels. 607 pixel is 15 acres and so class 2 and 3 would be more than 15 acres) and cell size of each raster is 10m. I have to create a 5 minute dataset that provides the area of the grid cell suitable for drainage, by summing the area in classes 1, 2 and 3. Then I have to create a fraction of grid cell map by dividing the sum by the grid cell area.

Take your count field squared * 0.0002471054 (if your cell size is in meters) or 0.000022956 (if your cell size is in feet) in order to get your acres. First add an acres field to make this calculation in, then just sum the acres field.

sadiajame

Just to make sure one thing that, the cell size is 10 m. Is that I need to take the count field* 100 sq.m *0.0002471054 ?

ChadKopplin

That is correct.
