TfLogarithm

Disponible con una licencia de Spatial Analyst.

Resumen

Defines a Logarithm transformation function which is determined from the shift and factor 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 TfLogarithm object is Rescale by Function.

There is no direct relationship between the base of the logarithm and the factor.

By definition, as the input values near zero, their function values approach infinity. As the function values get closer to infinity, the smaller function values dramatically increase the function range. As a result, when the function range is transformed linearly to the evaluation scale, the smaller function values skew the range so that the shape of the logarithm curve may be lost. Increasing the lowerThreshold can be used to truncate some of these really low values.

To address the issue of small input values skewing the function range, a varying shift based on the input range is applied by default. This shift will truncate the very low values, thus maintaining the logarithm function shape in the output raster.

Explorar:

The conceptual technical interaction of the varying default shift is

• The function limit is calculated from the minimum and maximum input values multiplied by the factor.
• A Delta is calculated: Delta = Exp(functionLimit)/factor. The Delta needs to be less than FLT_EPSILON (which equals 1.19209290 x 10^-07).
• Determine the shift: shift = inputMinimum - Delta.

Sintaxis

TfLogarithm ({shift}, {factor}, {lowerThreshold}, {valueBelowThreshold}, {upperThreshold}, {valueAboveThreshold})

Parámetro	Explicación	Tipo de datos
shift	Defines how much each input value is to be shifted. The shift value is subtracted from the input value. The transformation function is applied to the shifted input value to determine the function value. By default, the shift adjusts the function so it begins at the lowerThreshold (or very close). As a result, the function will be applied to 0 (the shifted input value) with the function being constrained between the lower and upper thresholds. A shift can be applied so the low input values do not dramatically increase the range of the function values; therefore, the final output evaluation scale maintains the general function shape. The shift can be positive or negative. (El valor predeterminado es None)	Double
factor	The multiplier to apply to the shifted input values. The factor alters the rise of the Logarithm curve. (El valor predeterminado es None)	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
