Mosaic Dataset To Mobile Mosaic Dataset (Data Management)

Summary

Converts a mosaic dataset into a mobile mosaic dataset compatible with ArcGIS Runtime SDK. A mobile mosaic dataset resides in a mobile geodatabase.

Usage

• When converting to a mobile mosaic dataset, you have the option to apply raster functions that are associated with the mosaic dataset by checking Convert Rasters (convert_rasters='ALWAYS' in Python). Leaving Convert Rasters unchecked will only convert the source data.

Syntax

MosaicDatasetToMobileMosaicDataset(in_mosaic_dataset, out_mobile_gdb, mosaic_dataset_name, {where_clause}, {selection_feature}, {out_data_folder}, {convert_rasters}, {out_name_prefix}, {format}, {compression_method}, {compression_quality})

Parameter	Explanation	Data Type
in_mosaic_dataset	The mosaic dataset to be converted to a mobile mosaic dataset.	Mosaic Dataset; Mosaic Layer
out_mobile_gdb	The geodatabase where the converted mosaic dataset will be created.	File
mosaic_dataset_name	The name of the mobile mosaic dataset to be created.	String
where_clause (Optional)	An SQL expression to select specific items to add to the mobile mosaic dataset.	SQL Expression
selection_feature (Optional)	The mosaic dataset items to be included in the output based on the extent of another image or feature class. Items that lay along the defined extent will be included in the mosaic dataset. They will not be clipped.	Extent
out_data_folder (Optional)	If specified, the tool will create a copy of the source data in this folder. If convert_rasters='ALWAYS', any raster functions associated with the mosaic dataset are processed before creating the copy.	Folder
convert_rasters (Optional)	Applies the raster functions associated with the input mosaic dataset before creating the mobile mosaic dataset. If you have raster functions that are not supported by ArcGIS Runtime SDK, the tool will return the appropriate error message. AS_REQUIRED —Do not convert raster items with functions that are not supported by ArcGIS Runtime SDK. This is the default. ALWAYS —Apply the raster function chain and save the output as converted raster items.	Boolean
out_name_prefix (Optional)	Appends a prefix to each item, which is copied or converted into the output data folder.	String
format (Optional)	The format for the rasters written to the output data folder. TIFF —TIFF format PNG —PNG format JPEG —JPEG format JP2 —JPEG2000 format	String
compression_method (Optional)	The method of compression for transmitting the mosaicked image from the computer to the display (or from the server to the client). NONE —No compression will be used. JPEG —Compresses up to 8:1 and is suitable for backdrops. LZW —Compresses approximately 2:1. Suitable for analysis. RLE —Lossless compression. Suitable for categorical datasets.	String
compression_quality (Optional)	A value from 0 to 100. A higher number means better image quality but less compression. This value only applies when JPEG or JP2 is specified as the compression method.	Long

Derived Output

Name	Explanation	Data Type
out_mosaic_dataset	The updated mosaic dataset.	Mosaic Dataset
