Label | Explanation | Data Type |
Mosaic Dataset | The mosaic dataset you want to synchronize. | Mosaic Layer |
Query Definition (Optional) | An SQL expression to select which mosaic dataset items will be synchronized. If an expression is not provided, all dataset items will be updated. | SQL Expression |
Update With New Items
(Optional) | Choose whether to include new items when synchronizing and specify which options to use under the Update With New Items Options submenu. If you choose to use this option, the item's workspace will be searched for new data. When data is added to the mosaic dataset, it will use the same raster type as the other items in the same workspace.
| Boolean |
Synchronize Stale Items Only (Optional) | Choose whether to update mosaic dataset items where the underlying raster datasets have been modified due to synchronizing. For example, building pyramids or updating the georeferencing of rasters will affect how the overviews are rendered.
| Boolean |
Update Cell Size Ranges
(Optional) | Update cell size ranges for the mosaic dataset.
| Boolean |
Update Boundary (Optional) | Update the polygon that shows the full extent of the mosaic dataset. Choose this option if syncing will change the extent of the mosaic dataset.
| Boolean |
Update Overviews (Optional) | Choose whether to update any obsolete overviews. The overview becomes obsolete if any underlying rasters have been modified due to synchronizing.
| Boolean |
Build Raster Pyramids (Optional) | Choose whether to build pyramids for the specified mosaic dataset items. Pyramids can be built for each raster item in the mosaic dataset. Pyramids can improve the speed at which each raster is displayed.
Pyramids will not be built for items that were added due to synchronization. | Boolean |
Calculate Statistics (Optional) | Choose whether to calculate statistics for the specified mosaic dataset items. Statistics are required for your mosaic dataset when performing certain tasks, such as applying a contrast stretch.
Statistics will not be calculated for items that were added due to synchronization. | Boolean |
Build Thumbnails (Optional) | Choose whether to build thumbnails for the specified mosaic dataset items. Thumbnails are small, highly resampled images that can be created for each raster item in the mosaic definition. Thumbnails can be accessed when the mosaic dataset is accessed as an image service and will display as part of the item description.
Thumbnails will not be built for items that were added due to synchronization. | Boolean |
Build Item Cache
(Optional) |
Choose whether to build a cache for the specified mosaic dataset items. A cache can be created when you've added data using the LAS, Terrain, or LAS dataset raster types. For more information about building cache for LAS, Terrain, or LAS Datasets, see Adding lidar data to a mosaic dataset.
The cache will not be built for items that were added due to synchronization. | Boolean |
Rebuild Raster From Data Source
(Optional) | Choose whether to rebuild the raster items from the data source using the original raster type.
This will only affect items that will be synchronized. This parameter is not applicable if Update With New Items has been checked on. | Boolean |
Update Fields
(Optional) | Choose whether to update the fields in the table. This will only affect items that will be synchronized.
If you choose to update the fields, you can control which fields are updated by selecting them in the Fields To Update parameter. If you made edits to some of the fields, you may want to unselect them in the Fields To Update parameter. | Boolean |
Fields To Update
(Optional) | Choose which fields should be updated. This parameter is only valid if Update Fields is checked. If you made edits to some of the fields, you may want to unselect them. The RASTER field can be refreshed, even if the Rebuild Raster From Data Source check box is unchecked. However, if Rebuild Raster From Data Source is checked, the RASTER field is rebuilt, even if this option is unchecked here. | String |
Update Existing Items
(Optional) | Choose whether to update existing items in your mosaic dataset. If you choose this option, you need to specify which options to update in Update Existing Items Options.
| Boolean |
Remove Items With Broken Data Source (Optional) | Choose whether to remove any broken links. Make sure that all your network connections are working properly—this tool will remove any items that cannot be accessed.
| Boolean |
Skip Existing Items
(Optional) | If the Update With New Items option is checked on, you can also choose whether to skip or update existing mosaic dataset items with the modified files from disk.
| Boolean |
Refresh Aggregate Information
(Optional) | Choose whether to include data that may have been removed from the mosaic dataset.
| Boolean |
Estimate Mosaic Dataset Statistics
| Choose whether to estimate statistics on the mosaic dataset.
| Boolean |
