It would be wonderful if Esri had a simple website that shows with which version a new geoprocessing tool is added.  Right now each version has a "whats new" page, but it would be great to see these pulled together into a single source so that we can verify that a tool exists or doesn't depending upon the version that the user has. https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/get-started/whats-new-in-arcgis-pro.htm For example, the Wikipedia page on ArcGIS shows each version's release date and includes a link to the "what's new" page, but it would be great to see all of this information pulled together into a single searchable table. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ArcGIS   ...

In Spatial Analyst we have the local toolset for working with individual pixels, neighborhood tools for groups of pixels, and zonal statistics for irregular groups of cells/polygons, but there is no tool that transforms entire rasters.  What about a toolset that transforms rasters into percentiles, quantiles, z-scores, standardizes, etc.?  This would be super useful and would be a great asset to the existing tools. ...
