Hi all-  I am hoping someone can help me with a problem we are having when calculating a least cost path from a 30 meter DEM.  When running the Path Distance tool, we are getting the error 10005, "unable to allocate memory, Path Distance mapping failed".  Memory is not an issue with the 2 machines this has been tested on.  Does this have something to do with the cell data type being single integer rather than floating point?  I changed the NoData values to 0, and that did not change anything.

Any ideas??  Thanks!

Hi Kate,

What is the uncompressed size of your input data?  What geographic area does this data cover?  You may need to process the data in subsets.
