I need your help in solving the following question
I have two raster datasets 1. DMSP nighttime lights data and 2. LandScan population data. I want to calculate cell based rural population based on the following conditions
1. Classify the nighttime light pixels of DMSP-OLS dataset by their digital
number (DN) into urban (DN > 0) or rural (DN=0).
2. Use the urban/rural pixel categorization to extract the rural population data from
LandScan data
 
How i can do this in ArcMap? Any help would be highly appreciated
