ArcGIS Desktop says that 16-bit unsigned integer is a possible option for creating a TIFF for which a color map can be created. I am curious if anyone knows how to specify this data type in the batch code below that I grabbed from an older post?
Thanks
import os,arcpy, glob # Path to ascii files filepath = r"C:\VMshared\small_example_valley2\snowdepth" # Path where to put rasters outFolder = r"C:\VMshared\small_example_valley2\snowdepthout" ascList = glob.glob(filepath + "/*.asc") print ascList for ascFile in ascList: outRaster = outFolder + "/" + os.path.split(ascFile)[1][:-3] + "tif" print outRaster arcpy.ASCIIToRaster_conversion(ascFile, outRaster, "FLOAT")
