Compute Change Raster (Image Analyst)

Доступно с лицензией Image Analyst.

Краткая информация

Вычисляет абсолютные, относительные или категорийные различия между двумя растрами.

Использование

  • This tool compares two rasters and generates a new raster containing the difference between the two. For example, use this tool to find out how carbon storage pixel values have changed between 2001 and 2020 or to see how land cover has changed from 2010 to 2015.

  • The following calculation types are available to compute the change raster:

    • Difference—The mathematical difference, or subtraction, between the pixel values in the From Raster and the pixel values in the To Raster.

      Output = (To Raster) - (From Raster)

    • Relative difference—The difference in pixel values, accounting for the quantities of the values being compared.

      Output = (To Raster - From Raster) / max(To Raster, From Raster)

    • Categorical difference—The difference between two categorical or thematic rasters in which the output shows every class transition that occurred between the two rasters.

  • The output from the Categorical difference computation type is a raster dataset with an attribute table. The table contains the transition types (for example, Forest to Urban), the number of pixels included in each transition type, and the estimated area of each transition type. Area is calculated as the pixel size multiplied by the number of pixels in each transition type. The units match the linear units of the input raster data.

  • You can limit your analysis to specific classes when computing the difference between two categorical rasters. For example, to visualize urban growth, you can include all the classes in the From Classes list, but only the Urban class in the To Classes list. The result will contain all of the transitions that contributed to the Urban category.

  • If the input rasters contain different cell sizes or extents, you can specify the cell size and extent in the Cell Size and Output Extent environment settings.

  • When analyzing categorical change, the From Raster and To Raster parameter values must both have an associated raster attribute table. The attribute table must have either a VALUE field, CLASS_NAME field, CLASSNAME field, or one string field.

String
Filter Method
(Дополнительный)

Specifies the pixels to be categorized in the output raster. This parameter is active when the Compute Change Method parameter is set to Categorical difference.

  • Changed pixels onlyOnly the pixels that changed categories will be categorized in the output. All pixels that did not change categories will be grouped in a class called Other.

  • All pixelsAll pixels will be categorized in the output. This is the default.
String
Transition Class Colors
(Дополнительный)

Specifies the color to use to symbolize the output classes. When a pixel changes from one class type to another, the output pixel color represents the initial class type, the final class type, or a blend of the two.

This parameter is active when the Compute Change Method parameter is set to Categorical difference.

  • Average From and To colorsThe color of the output class will be the average of the from (initial) and to (final) class colors. This is the default.
  • From colorThe color of the output class will match the color of the from (initial) class.
