Raster calculator in ModelBuilder?

ChristopherJursa — Tue, 06 Apr 2010 19:30:49 GMT

Hello,

Is it possible to use the raster calculator outside of the Spatial Analyst drop down menu?

I would like to run it in a model I am building in ModelBuilder. Is this possible? Is it possible to use in a Python script as well?

I am asking as I have a model set up with other functions. However, before the end, I want to run a special equation and use the output for another function.

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

Is it possible to use the raster calculator outside of the Spatial Analyst drop down menu?

Check out the Single_Output_Map_Algebra'>Single Map Algebra Output Tool in Spatial Analyst Toolbox > Map Algebra Toolset.

It can be used in ModelBuilder. I assume you are working with 9.3 or 9.3.1.

Also, the Multi Output Map Algebra tool might be of interest for your workflow.

Hi, thanks!

I simply want to multiply my grid * 0.3048 to convert feet to meters.

How would I do so with this tool?

why not use the Times tool (Spatial analyst tools, Math toolset, Times tool

The times tool worked great. Thanks!

I need to use rater calculator into the model builder. The equation I need to enter is the following:

con ([recl_pop_dens] eq 0, 0, ~
                     [recl_pop_dens] eq 1 and [recl_plus] eq 3, 1, ~
                     [recl_pop_dens] eq 1 and [recl_plus] eq 2, 2, ~
                     [recl_pop_dens] eq 1 and [recl_plus] eq 1, 3, ~
                     [recl_pop_dens] eq 2 and [recl_plus] eq 3, 2, ~
                     [recl_pop_dens] eq 2 and [recl_plus] eq 2, 3, ~
                     [recl_pop_dens] eq 2 and [recl_plus] eq 1, 4, ~
                     [recl_pop_dens] eq 3 and [recl_plus] eq 3, 4, ~
                     [recl_pop_dens] eq 3 and [recl_plus] eq 2, 5, ~
       [recl_pop_dens] eq 3 and [recl_plus] eq 1, 6, ~
           4)

Note that [recl_pop_dens] and [recl_plus] are rasters generated from the same model. I do not really understand how to use Multy Output Map Algebra.

Any help would be very much appreciated

Can multi output be used in modelbuilder? I thought it couldn't.

Bill thanks a lot for your effort to help me.

My equation is working perfectly in the map - Raster Calculator (probably isn't correct for the use of model builder). Your interpretation is not totally correct but anyway, I do not understand who to use something like this in the model builder, which is my main problem.

Thanks Bill, SOMA works fine!!!! (I do not know why all this time I was trying with MOMA )
