Pan sharpened image appears in the wrong location

SimonCrutchley — Tue, 14 Oct 2025 08:40:10 GMT

I’m working with satellite data in Pro and I have problem. I have both M/S and Pan imagery, for which I’ve used the default projection, but when I use the Raster function to create a pan-sharpened image, it appears in the Atlantic. I leave all the default settings in Pan-Sharpen, so I can’t see what I’m doing wrong.

Unfortunately, I can’t share the imagery, but I’ve tried several images, all with the same result. Is there a basic user error?

Thanks

Does the arctoolbox tool

Create Pansharpened Raster Dataset (Data Management)—ArcGIS Pro | Documentation

do the same thing, if you explicitly set the output coordinate system in the tool's Environments tab?

Hi Dan, No, this is in the right place. I can obviously keep using this, but I just wonder what has gone wrong with the other tool?

Thanks

Simon, I suspect that the raster functions may default to the coordinate system of the map rather than specified via the Environments tab. I didn't see any Bug listed on the public facing Support site, but it doesn't mean that it doesn't exist.

In short, I always used ArcToolbox tools because of the Environment settings, which can be checked and set which isn't the case otherwise.

Thanks Dan. I'll bear that in mind in future. 🙂
