Summary

Adds (sums) the values of two rasters on a cell-by-cell basis.

Illustration

Usage

The order of inputs is irrelevant for this tool.
If both inputs are integer, the output will be an integer raster; otherwise, it will be a floating-point raster.
If both inputs are single band rasters, or one of the inputs is a constant, the output will be a single band raster.
If both inputs are multiband rasters, or one of the inputs is a constant, the output will be a multiband raster. The number of bands in each multiband input must be the same.
The tool will perform the operation on each band from one input against the corresponding band from the other input. If one of the inputs is a multiband raster and the other input is a constant, the tool will perform the operation against the constant value for each band in the multiband input.

Syntax

Plus(in_raster_or_constant1, in_raster_or_constant2, out_raster)

Parameter	Explanation	Data Type
in_raster_or_constant1	The input whose values will be added to. A number can be used as an input for this parameter, provided a raster is specified for the other parameter. To specify a number for both inputs, the cell size and extent must first be set in the environment.	Raster Layer; Constant
in_raster_or_constant2	The input whose values will be added to the first input. A number can be used as an input for this parameter, provided a raster is specified for the other parameter. To specify a number for both inputs, the cell size and extent must first be set in the environment.	Raster Layer; Constant
out_raster	The output raster. The cell values are the sum of the first input added to the second.	Raster Dataset

Code sample

Plus example 1 (Python window)

This example adds the values of two Grid rasters and outputs the result as an IMG raster.

import arcpy
from arcpy import env
env.workspace = "C:/data"
arcpy.Plus_3d("elevation", 15, "C:/output/outplus.img")

Plus example 2 (stand-alone script)

This example adds the values of two Grid rasters and outputs the result as a Grid raster.
