Quick Export

Hi All,

I have recently acquired ArcGIS Desktop Standard and the main reason for this purchase is to be able process raster (ascii) and export the results in Mapinfo and or shape file format.

As mthe first task, I have processed a raster and sharing some the raster contents below:

Attributes table of the Raster

Raster in Map

Raster type and cell size info

Now I want to do 2 things

Dissolve the data - The issue is the above raster is not available in "Input Features" for selection. I tried to save it as a layer (*.lyr), but I get an invalid layer error message
Quick Export the dissolved file into Mapifo type polygon (*.tab), I do have the Data Interoperability extension license. Similar to dissolve, the *lyr file is deemed invalid.

I tried and saved as different layer types and yet nothing seems to work.

Please help by point me in the right direction?

Thanks,

Donne

Both Dissolve or Export to MapInfo format (.TAB) (using Quick Export) needs Feature Layer/Feature Class as input. Raster data are not supported.

As a first step, you could convert the Raster to Polygon Feature Class. Then, you could use the Polygon Feature Class as inputs of the desired geoprocessing tools.
