Forrest, great video, and thank you for the content and lesson. I'm trying to convert 3 vector shapefiles to raster but no success so far. Can we do a Zoom session today?
As I mentioned in response to your previous comment, I’m not available for consulting in that manner. Please reach out over email for consulting/tutorial rates.
Hi, thank you for the video. Please does it mean that if I have several variables which I would like to analyse in raster format, I need to make a conversion for each of this variable using the 'feature to raster' tool? or is there a way that raster can contain more than one variable? Also what if my data has a year variable how do I analyse the raster on this basis?
Damilola, you're interested in a different file format if you have several variables all together. This is 'multidimensional' data, with the file type NetCDF. This allows for multiple dimensions (data types) within a coverage, and can include time dimensions as well. Climate data often works this way but it can apply in many data contexts and is always complex. There are conversion tools in ArcPro and elsewhere that can help you convert such data - see links below for some more details. Please note that these conversions are very specific to the data/work you're doing, and as such, you should be careful you're representing your data correctly upon converstion. pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/help/data/multidimensional/what-is-netcdf-data.htm (more about NetCDF data) pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/tool-reference/multidimension/an-overview-of-the-netcdf-toolset.htm (the NetCDF conversion tools in ArcPro) docs.safe.com/fme/html/FME_Desktop_Documentation/FME_ReadersWriters/netcdf/netcdf.htm (additional NetCDF information from the makers of FME)
Great video, thank you! :)
Thanks for sharing. This was very helpful!
