topic Having ASCII issues between exporting Raster to ASCII file from GIS into MATLAB.

I have 6 files, all have the same extent, cell size and number of rows and columns. I have tried exporting (RASTER TO ASCII) individually as well as tried batch exporting. However, when I import into MATLAB to run my statistical analysis, the imported files have different numbers of columns and rows. Any idea how to solve this? Or whether this sounds more like a GIS issue or Matlab issue?</P><P></P><P>Thanks, </P><P>L</P></BODY></HTML> Sat, 12 Dec 2015 17:12:36 GMT ElizabethMerton 2015-12-12T17:12:36Z Having ASCII issues between exporting Raster to ASCII file from GIS into MATLAB.
