I have mosaiced them into a single dataset. I repeatedly get the dreaded Error 999999 when I run the Slope tool, but no messages indicating why. It fails as soon as it starts, even though my computer usually takes several moments to run a tool. Can anyone think of anything else I might be doing wrong here to cause the error?</P><P></P><P><IMG alt="Properties of DEM file" class="image-1 jive-image j-img-original" src="https://community.esri.com/legacyfs/online/431478_DEM.png" /></P></BODY></HTML> Wed, 12 Dec 2018 22:28:23 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/mining-questions/slope-function-keeps-failing/m-p/305617#M93 NicoleKeller 2018-12-12T22:28:23Z Re: Slope Function keeps failing https://community.esri.com/t5/mining-questions/slope-function-keeps-failing/m-p/305618#M94 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>are you using the raster function? or the raster tool in arctoolbox</P><P><A class="link-titled" href="http://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/help/data/imagery/slope-function.htm" title="http://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/help/data/imagery/slope-function.htm">Slope function—ArcGIS Pro | ArcGIS Desktop</A>&nbsp;</P><P>Raster functions can be applied to mosaic datasets</P><P><A class="link-titled" href="http://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/help/data/imagery/raster-functions.htm" title="http://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/help/data/imagery/raster-functions.htm">Raster functions—ArcGIS Pro | ArcGIS Desktop</A>&nbsp; see the section</P><BLOCKQUOTE class="jive_macro_quote jive-quote jive_text_macro"><SPAN style="display: inline !important; float: none; background-color: transparent; color: #4c4c4c; font-family: 'Avenir Next W01','Avenir Next W00','Avenir Next','Avenir','Helvetica Neue',sans-serif; font-size: 17px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;">Functions can be applied to the following data types:</SPAN></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML> Thu, 13 Dec 2018 02:29:03 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/mining-questions/slope-function-keeps-failing/m-p/305618#M94 DanPatterson_Retired 2018-12-13T02:29:03Z Re: Slope Function keeps failing https://community.esri.com/t5/mining-questions/slope-function-keeps-failing/m-p/305619#M95 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Thanks for replying, Dan.&nbsp; Turns out, I just had to turn off background processing!
