So first i need to convert these into a raster, right? I imported the excel table into ArcGIS, made a XY event and exported it into a shapefile. The problem is that i can't manage to convert this shapefile to raster!</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>I tried through Spatial Analyst (Convert &gt; Features to raster) and got an error "Operation failed". And I also tried through Arc Toolbox (Conversion tools &gt; To raster &gt; Point to raster) and got the following error:</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Executing (PointToRaster_1): PointToRaster "Sheet2$ Events" Dens C:\Users\Mar\Desktop\Sheet2$_Feat MOST_FREQUENT NONE 0,00016</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>Start Time: Fri Oct 28 04:11:18 2011</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>Error in executing function</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>Failed to execute (PointToRaster_1).</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>End Time: Fri Oct 28 04:11:18 2011 (Elapsed Time: 0,00 seconds)</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Searching for an alternative, i created a geostatistical layer by interpolating the point shapefile but then when i try to export it to raster i also get an error "can't create output raster".</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Someone knows what am I doing wrong? I'm using ArcGIS 9.2.</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>Thanks for your help!</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Fri, 28 Oct 2011 02:16:47 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/cannot-export-convert-to-raster/m-p/209193#M11981 IsabellaAndrade 2011-10-28T02:16:47Z Re: Cannot export/convert to raster https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/cannot-export-convert-to-raster/m-p/209194#M11982 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>Try removing the spaces and special characters in your input. </SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>-Eric</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Fri, 28 Oct 2011 14:38:00 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/cannot-export-convert-to-raster/m-p/209194#M11982 EricRice 2011-10-28T14:38:00Z Re: Cannot export/convert to raster https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/cannot-export-convert-to-raster/m-p/209195#M11983 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>Thank you Eric, but I found out there's nothing wrong with my input file.
