When using the Suitability Modeler in ArcGIS Pro, the criteria must be transformed onto a common scale, and this is done on the Transformation Pane. These transformed criteria are combined to create the suitability map. Unless explicitly set, all these layers are processed as raster functions, which processes raster data in real-time without creating a new file on disk. Instead of writing a new permanent raster, functions are applied "on the fly" as you view the data, which is faster and saves storage space. However, if you want to use the transformed rasters outside the Suitability Modeler application, you should check the Save transformed dataset when model is run option. This "save" will take place when the Run button on the Suitability tab is clicked. This "Run" operation will also convert the suitability raster function to a raster dataset.

Hi If you are speaking of the Suitability Modeler, the criteria that make up the suitability map are available within the modeler. It is an interactive system and the transformations and weights can be modified within the application. There is no web app for the Suitability Modeler however, there is a Suitability Modeler widget. Regards -Steve

any raster without an extension in a file workspace can only be ESRI grid.

Phil I'm sorry to hear that you are having a problem. Could we try to repro it with a small simple case. 1. create a folder, say c:\sumoProblem 2. use CopyRaster and copy 2 rasters into that folder. 3 in a new ArcGIS Pro project 4. from the Analysis ribbon, launch Suitability Modeler 5. on the Suitability tab, use the + icon to browse to this folder and add these 2 rasters 6. transform them 7. Save/Close the Suitability Modeler 8. close ArcGIS Pro without saving 9. in a new ArcGIS Pro project 10. open the .sam created above 11. is all good? Please email me at slynch@esri.com

The crux of this issue is that the one criterion has data in the eastern part and NoData in the western part. The other criterion has the opposite, viz., NoData in the eastern part and data in the western part. When combining the two criteria the suitability map is filled with NoData and the default renderer shows very small values. Suitability Modeler is doing what it is designed to do.

You need to save the model and can do it anytime while modeling, noting that it'll save all you've done up to that point (you can do the save for your ArcGIS Pro project). Please make sure that you have either of the 2 default base maps (World Topography Map and/or World Hillshade) in your map. We will remove this limitation in 3.3

Some useful comments and questions above. Here are some more 1) is your data stored locally or on a network (local is better) 2) turn off the visibility of the layers after they are transformed and also other layers in your Contents 3) uncheck Auto Calculate while modifying the transformation 4) "Save transformed dataset when model is run" needs only to be enabled if the transformed layers are to be used outside the Suitability Modeler 5) size of your data (number of columns and rows) 6) are all the data in the same coordinate system and have the same cell size? 7) how many criteria are you using?

The problem that you are encountering is that your suitability map is all zero, hence WARNING 010506: All input cell values are identical. The Suitability Modeler does not use 0, I suggest that you use the Environment's Mask or set areas that you don't want to use to NoData. Does your suitability map, when using only 1 criterion, have different values and can you run Locate on it?

What version are you using and a screenshot of your suitability map showing min and max would help. And, have you tried the solution associated with the error?

What version of ArcGIS are you using? You only need to persist the transformed layers to disk if you are going to use them elsewhere in your analysis, so you don't have to save them. Where are you writing your suitability map to, a local folder or a shared folder and what output format, fgdb, .tif, ?
