  • Click and drag to select a region

  • Choose the output projection and raster format

  • Click Run Task to begin processing

Supported File Types

This task supports raster files.

Usage Notes

  • The result is compressed into a zip file named output.zip that can be downloaded

  • The number of bands for each input must be the same or the task will fail

  • The clip region is used to clip the output mosaic dataset

  • The clip region is ignored when the output format is a MosaicDataset

  • The projection is used to project the output results (the default is WGS84)

  • Outputs can be saved to BIL, BIP, BMP, BSQ, DAT, Esri Grid, GIF, IMG, JPEG, JPEG 2000, PNG, TIFF, or any geodatabase raster dataset including a mosaic dataset

  • If the raster format is MosaicDataset, a mosaic dataset is created in a File Geodatabase and the results are added to it (this option requires an ArcGIS Standard or Advanced license)

  • The most common pixel type of the inputs is used

  • For raster formats JPG, JP2, and FileGDB, the advanced settings for setting compression can be used

  • The GIF format only supports single-band raster datasets

  • Large input rasters will require longer processing times; the status can be checked on the Task History page

  • Requires ArcGIS 10.x
