topic viewing raster information for many rasters in Python Questions https://community.esri.com/t5/python-questions/viewing-raster-information-for-many-rasters/m-p/628371#M48936 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Is there a way to view a compilation of the properties (raster data properties) for multiple rasters? (Or any set of feature data?) I have 18&nbsp;DEMs that I want to mosaic, but I want to double check the pixel-depth, pixel-type&nbsp;and pyramid levels&nbsp;for all of them before I create the mosaic. I know you can double-click the layer to bring up the properties window, then select raster data and read the data, but that's a lot of clicking... Is there a tool or script that can compile a summary of data points for all the DEM files?</P><P>Ideally, if it's scriptable, I'd love if someone could point me in the right direction to learn how to write a script that could do it. I can work with Python, VBScript,&nbsp;and most likely any other supported language.</P></BODY></HTML> Fri, 28 Oct 2016 17:41:40 GMT DCWORK_GIS 2016-10-28T17:41:40Z viewing raster information for many rasters https://community.esri.com/t5/python-questions/viewing-raster-information-for-many-rasters/m-p/628371#M48936 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Is there a way to view a compilation of the properties (raster data properties) for multiple rasters?
