Batch process to Clip Raster by Polygon

JimFritz

I'm not a python script writer thus the question. What's needed is a script that will do the following:

• Run a definition query for each record in a polygon shapefile called "LineBuf.shp" on an attribute field named "LINENUM". (There are 441 unique records).
• For each unique polygon, run a raster clip on "MN_DEM3second", the raster dataset. The option to "Use Input Features for Clipping Geometry" should be selected.
• The file name of the resultant raster layer (in ESRI grid format) for each record should be the value of "LINENUM" (from the original definition query).
• The script should create 441 raster layers.

Thanks, Jake and Dan but now I'm getting this message:

Runtime error Traceback (most recent call last): File "<string>", line 12, in <module> File "c:\program files (x86)\arcgis\desktop10.3\arcpy\arcpy\management.py", line 13594, in Clip raise e ExecuteError: ERROR 000622: Failed to execute (Clip). Parameters are not valid. ERROR 000800: The value is not a member of ClippingGeometry | NONE.

Probably something easy with the ClippingGeometry arguments?
