In ArcCatalog 10.1 I can right-click a raster (say in a FGDB), select "Properties" from the menu to open the dialog that displays the basic information about that raster.

Is there a way or a tool available that will save this information to a file?

Thanks,
J

The Windows snipping tool will capture a screenshot. 😕

You would need to create your own script. Most raster properties are easily accessible via arcpy.Describe, and those that are difficult to access Describe are available using the Get Raster Properties tool.

If you have a good use case about what such a report would look like, make your suggestion @ http://ideas.arcgis.com.

Thanks Curt,

Guess this will be added to the list of Python tools to develop.  They are adding up quick!
