Raster name in the Geodatabase

[CatherineMichaud]

Hi,

In Arc Gis (Arc catalog), I created a geodatabase. I then imported raster, but their original names have been changed.

Name example as input:
NSS.HRPT.NK.D13172.S1035.E1048.B7854545.WI

Result: Name example output(in geodatabase):
NSS_1
NSS_2

How to keep the full name? (NSS.HRPT.NK.D13172.S1035.E1048.B7854545.WI)

I accept the explanations using model builder or Python.

Thanks in advance,

Catherine

The original name of the raster contains invalid character (.)
While importing the raster, you can name it as NSS_HRPT_NK_D13172_S1035_E1048_B7854545_WI

If you're looping through your rasters to be imported, you could change the name using python's "replace" like :

InRas = "NSS.HRPT.NK.D13172.S1035.E1048.B7854545.WI"
OutRas = InRas.replace(".","_")
print OutRas
NSS_HRPT_NK_D13172_S1035_E1048_B7854545_WI

Cheers,
