topic Convert world shaded relief map layer to raster data in Data Management Questions https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/convert-world-shaded-relief-map-layer-to-raster/m-p/434434#M24813 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>Have a world shaded relief map downloaded from arcgis online and open alongside an attribute table of XY data that displays the coordinates of a drainage basin boundary. Want to use the hillshade tool to emphasise/change the elevation boundaries and apply a suitable colour shading....a) when I open the hillshade option it asks for an input (i.e. the world relief map layer??) but continues to say this is the wrong format - I recognise it's not a raster file so how do i convert that layer so it's compatible? b) is it possible to change the contour shading? (i.e. 50m boundaries into 10m boundaries) because have a very low lying region with little altitude change....</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Any help would be much appreciated - been banging head against a wall for a while now!</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>Cheers in advance</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Thu, 21 Mar 2013 09:53:25 GMT JoelLlewellyn-Eaton 2013-03-21T09:53:25Z Convert world shaded relief map layer to raster data https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/convert-world-shaded-relief-map-layer-to-raster/m-p/434434#M24813 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>Have a world shaded relief map downloaded from arcgis online and open alongside an attribute table of XY data that displays the coordinates of a drainage basin boundary.

The world shaded relief map -- even if it was a raster would not be acceptable.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Consider using the World Elevation image service. For this you currently need to enroll in the beta. </SPAN><A href="http://resources.arcgis.com/en/communities/imagery/01850000000m000000.htm">http://resources.arcgis.com/en/communities/imagery/01850000000m000000.htm</A></BODY></HTML> Mon, 25 Mar 2013 18:55:05 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/convert-world-shaded-relief-map-layer-to-raster/m-p/434435#M24814 MelanieHarlow 2013-03-25T18:55:05Z
