Local functions

Available with Spatial Analyst license.

The Local functions allow you to perform bitwise, conditional, logical, mathematical, and statistical operations on a pixel-by-pixel basis. Depending on the operation type, it may require 1, 2, 3 or n input rasters. You may need to stack a few Local functions together in order to achieve some of the conditional and logical functions.

There are four parameters for this function:

• Input
• Operations
• Cell Size
• Extent

Input

There are several inputs that can be used within the Local functions. The Local functions only work on a single band. If you have a multiple-band raster, use the Extract Band function to specify which band to use in the Local function.

Add raster from disk	Add a raster that is on disk. You can add raster datasets, mosaic datasets, and raster products.
Add function chain	Add a function chain as an input.
Add scalar	Add a scalar value. Scalar values must be numeric.
Add Variable	Add a variable. The variable is a string representing a raster that will be set at run time. Normally, it is the variable names used in mosaic dataset.
Add reference to selected input	Add a referenced copy of the selected raster or the selected function chain input. A change in the referenced raster or the function chain will be reflected in this referenced copy. This can be useful when creating many Local functions that may use the same referenced input.
Add copy of selected input	Add a static copy of the selected function chain input. A change in the copied function chain will not reflect this static copy. This can be useful when creating many similar Local functions where there is a slight change in the function chains.

Local Functions

The functions will perform the specified operation on the input rasters. The Operation information box informs you which Operation was chosen and how many inputs are needed.
