TfSmall

Disponible con una licencia de Spatial Analyst.

Resumen

Defines a Small transformation function which is determined from the midpoint and spread shape–controlling parameters as well as the lower and upper threshold that identify the range within which to apply the function.

Debate

The tool that uses the TfSmall object is Rescale by Function.

The equation for the Small transformation function is:

The inputs to the equation are f1, the spread, and f2, the midpoint.

The function values range from 0 to 1, which are then transformed to the evaluation scale.

The spread determines how rapidly the transformation function values increase and decrease around the midpoint. If the midpoint is within the range of the lower and upper thresholds, then the spread determines how rapidly the function values increase to the toScale and decrease to the fromScale. The larger the value, the steeper the function values will be around the midpoint. Said another way, as the spread gets smaller, the transformation function values approach the midpoint more slowly.

The selection of an appropriate spread value is a subjective process that is dependent on the range of the input values. The default value of 5 is a good starting point.

Input values that are negative (below zero) will be assigned to the evaluation value that is assigned to zero.

The Small function is useful when you want the small input values to receive the higher output evaluation values (the smaller values are preferred).

Sintaxis

TfSmall ({midpoint}, {spread}, {lowerThreshold}, {valueBelowThreshold}, {upperThreshold}, {valueAboveThreshold})

Parámetro	Explicación	Tipo de datos
midpoint	Defines the transition point of the transformation function where the curve becomes more concave for the values lesser than the midpoint and more convex for values greater than the midpoint. Shifting the midpoint greater than the midpoint of the input data alters the transition point, resulting in an increase in the range of the smaller values below the midpoint being more preferred, with the preference increasing at a slower rate. The midpoint value cannot equal 0. (El valor predeterminado es None)	Double
spread	Defines the spread of the Small transformation function that controls how quickly the function values increase and decrease from the midpoint. The spread generally ranges from 1 to 10; the larger the value results in a steeper distribution around the midpoint. The spread value must be greater than 0. (El valor predeterminado es 5.0)	Double
lowerThreshold	Defines the starting value at which to begin applying the specified transformation function. The input value corresponding to the lowerThreshold is assigned to the fromScale evaluation scale value on the output raster. Input values below the lowerThreshold are assigned to the valueBelowThreshold and are not considered in the function value range. The lowerThreshold must be less than the upperThreshold. (El valor predeterminado es None)	Double
valueBelowThreshold	A user-specified value to assign output cell locations with input values below the lowerThreshold. The value for valueBelowThreshold can be float, integer, or NoData. In the tool dialog box, no quotation marks are used around NoData; however, quotation marks are required around "NoData" when scripting. (El valor predeterminado es None)	Variant
upperThreshold	Defines the ending value at which to stop applying the specified transformation function. The input value corresponding to the upperThreshold is assigned to the toScale evaluation scale value on the output raster. Input values above the upperThreshold are assigned to the valueAboveThreshold and are not considered in the function value range. The lowerThreshold must be less than the upperThreshold. (El valor predeterminado es None)	Double
valueAboveThreshold	A user-specified value to assign output cell locations with input values above the upperThreshold. The value for valueAboveThreshold can be float, integer, or NoData. In the tool dialog box, no quotation marks are used around NoData; however, quotation marks are required around "NoData" when scripting. (El valor predeterminado es None)	Variant
