I have 30+ folders, each folder contains 8-20 tiffs. How can I mosaic the tiff's in the 1st folder together (using the folders name as the mosaic outputs name), then change to the next folder and repeat the mosaic operation, each time creating a new raster mosaic of just the tiff's in a given folder. Sure, I could run mosaic_to_raster over and over changing the input workspace (folder) and entering an output name, but there must me a way to automate the iteration from one folder to the next and run the mosaic process per folder? Example: cd to folder 1 (00114), mosaic 9 tiffs and output to 00114.tif, cd to next folder "00115" and mosaic 10 tiffs and output to 00115.tif, cd "00116"....... All the individual folders are under one main folder or workspace named "Blocks". ... View more

I have tried the Explode Advanced Edit option, but the shapefile I have is not a "Multipart" shapefile so the tool fails. I have tried the Split by Attribute Tool, but it tries to split every overlapping intersection and creates 10's of thousands of new individual polygons (there should only be 3401 or 1 for each entry in the attribute table).I just want an individual polygon (FC) for each Polygonlisted in the attribute table, and have the new "shapefile(s)" be named using the "Name" Filed or worse case the FID Id for now from the current table. Below is a image showing the current Footprint shapefile and the associated table. So I just want a new individual shapefile for each table entry. Sounds easy..... but...... And sure I could select each one, one by one do Data,  Export Data 3401 times...... There must be an easier way.   ... View more

Looking for a way to add several (or a few) tiff file who's full path is listed in a shapefile's attribute table to the data view.  I have a shapefile denoting the coverage of 100's of individual tiffs that I would like to open in the data view after selecting a few based on their location. The full path to the individual tiff is listed in the attribute table under a field titled "location" in the table. I would like to select a few of the listed tiffs and load them without selecting each one from the normal "Add Data" method. Basically, have a button that would allow me to add all the selected individual polys associated raster's from the tables listed path. ... View more
