Available with Spatial Analyst license.

Classify a raster dataset based on an Esri Classifier Definition (.ecd) file and raster dataset inputs. The .ecd file contains all the information needed to perform a specific type of Esri-supported classification.

License:

This function requires the ArcGIS Spatial Analyst extension to be enabled.

There are three inputs for this function:

• Input Raster—The raster dataset you want to classify.
• Input Definition File—The input Esri Classifier Definition (.ecd) file that contains the statistics on the chosen attributes.
• Input Raster 2—An optional raster to incorporate ancillary raster datasets, such as a segmented image, a multispectral image, or a DEM, to generate attributes and other required information for the classifier. The raster dataset for this parameter must match those used to create the input definition file.

• Understanding Segmentation and Classification
