Locate Pixel at Specific Coordinate in US National Grid

natashaGregory-Michelman — Wed, 25 May 2016 17:04:31 GMT

I am trying to locate a specific coordinate within the US National Grid displayed over an NDVI raster.

18TXL5220060030 and 18TXL5157160811 as an example.

I have specified the subdivision ticks to be 10 so I can see 52200 precisely and I can see 60 and can estimate that 30 would be a bit before 61 but I'm just eyeing this information and I'm thinking there must be a more precise method to locate specific coordinates within this mapping software. I'm drawing a line from the tick marks estimated locations to find the intersection but this seems to be a very rudimentary way of doing things. I'm running 10.4

Thankyou for any help.

If you want to locate specific pixel you can use GO To XY tool in Tools bar

If you want to know the coordinate of any pixel , you can use identify tool

then click on the pixel and you will get this window

that have the coordinates of pixel.

thanks

If you're doing this for more than a few points, you can make a table of your coordinates, make an XY point event layer from the table, and then extract values to points (requires spatial analyst).
