Boundary rules followed when converting features to a raster

This ArcGIS 3.0 documentation has been archived and is no longer updated. Content and links may be outdated. See the latest documentation.

The graphic below illustrates what rules apply when a feature falls exactly on a cell boundary.

  • If a feature falls on a cell boundary, use the cell above it; if there is not one there, then remain in the cell below.
  • If there is a cell to the left, use it; if there is no cell, then remain in the cell on the right.
