I have created a least cost path for a potential road between two points and now know the total cost/points of that path.  I have also been given a line between those same points from a different department that was created without GIS. 

How do I take the second line and find the total cost of it based on the cost rasters that I created to make my least cost line.  

I want to be able to compare the total cost of both paths.

Thanks in advance
