Round Up (Spatial Analyst)

Available with Spatial Analyst license.

Available with Image Analyst license.

Summary

Returns the next higher integer value, just represented as a floating point, for each cell in a raster.

Illustration

OutRas = RoundUp(InRas1)

Usage

  • Input values can be positive or negative.

  • The output raster from this tool is always floating-point type, regardless of the input value type.

  • If the input number has any values to the right of the decimal point, the output will be assigned the next higher integer value, but will be represented as a floating point number with no decimal portion. For example:

       Input   Output
        5.3     6.0
        4.9     5.0
        3.0     3.0
        6.5     7.0
       -0.2     0.0
       -2.8    -2.0
  • If the input is a multiband raster, the output will be a multiband raster. The tool will perform the operation on each band in the input.

  • If the input is multidimensional raster data, all slices from all variables will be processed. The output will be a multidimensional raster in CRF format.

  • See Analysis environments and Spatial Analyst for additional details on the geoprocessing environments that apply to this tool.

Parameters

LabelExplanationData Type
Input raster or constant value

The input values to be rounded up.

To use a number as an input for this parameter, the cell size and extent must first be set in the environment.

Raster Layer; Constant

Return Value

LabelExplanationData Type
Output raster

The output raster.

The cell values are the result of rounding up the input values.

Raster

RoundUp(in_raster_or_constant)
NameExplanationData Type
in_raster_or_constant

The input values to be rounded up.

To use a number as an input for this parameter, the cell size and extent must first be set in the environment.

Raster Layer; Constant

Return Value

NameExplanationData Type
out_raster

The output raster.

The cell values are the result of rounding up the input values.

Code sample

RoundUp example 1 (Python window)

This example rounds the values in the input raster to the next higher integer value and outputs a floating-point raster.

import arcpy
from arcpy import env
from arcpy.sa import *
env.workspace = "C:/sapyexamples/data"
outRoundUp = RoundUp("gwhead")
outRoundUp.save("C:/sapyexamples/output/outru")
RoundUp example 2 (stand-alone script)

This example rounds the values in the input raster to the next higher integer value and outputs a floating-point raster.

# Name: RoundUp_Ex_02.py
# Description: Returns the next higher whole number for each cell
#              in a raster
# Requirements: Spatial Analyst Extension

# Import system modules
import arcpy
from arcpy import env
from arcpy.sa import *

# Set environment settings
env.workspace = "C:/sapyexamples/data"

# Set local variables
inRaster = "gwhead"

# Execute RoundUp
outRoundURaster = RoundUp(inRaster)

# Save the output 
outRoundURaster.save("C:/sapyexamples/output/outroundup")
