https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-questions/how-to-properly-vectorize-a-thick-raster-line-in/m-p/1196077#M57781 <P>I'm trying to vectorize a raster image of a highway in ArcGIS Pro. In ArcMap, ArcScan easily does the trick, but ArcGIS Pro doesn't have ArcScan. When I try Raster to Polyline, ArcGIS creates an enclosed polyline to represent each and every pixel making up the highway. When I try Raster to Polygon, ArcGIS creates two vectors, one to represent each side of the highway line, instead of just one vector to represent the highway itself. I assume this is because the raster line making up the highway is several pixels thick, so it's recognized as representing a 2D object instead of a line.</P><P>I've tried making the highway line thinner, but am not licensed to use the Thin tool. Does anyone know how to vectorize a (thick) raster line in ArcGIS Pro? Thanks so much!</P><P>&nbsp;</P> Tue, 26 Jul 2022 19:07:14 GMT ndarner 2022-07-26T19:07:14Z https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-questions/how-to-properly-vectorize-a-thick-raster-line-in/m-p/1196077#M57781 <P>I'm trying to vectorize a raster image of a highway in ArcGIS Pro.
