Hello,

I'm trying to extract the max cell value as a point that I can use in a cost path calculation. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Carl

I had an idea yesterday that I'll try: get max value, then using raster calculator, subtract max value then set negative values to no data, then convert raster to point. This is part of a python script I'm writing so I'll report back when I get a chance to see how it works. If anyone else has a better idea please share. Thanks!

It seems like you could determine the max value and then use the CON() function to set everything that is not the max value to 0 or null and then convert that to a point.
