What are the rules for a mosaic dataset?
First—The overlapping areas will contain the cells from the first raster dataset listed in the source. Last—The overlapping areas will contain the cells from the last raster dataset listed in the source. Min—The overlapping areas will contain the minimum cell values from all the overlapping cells.
How to view a mosaic dataset in ESRI?
Search on Esri Community Submit to ArcGIS Ideas When viewing a mosaic dataset from the Preview tab in ArcCatalog on the machine wherein the imagery files reside, the mosaic dataset displays correctly.
Can you change the default method of mosaicking?
However, if you’re viewing the mosaic dataset as a data source and not modifying it for the benefit of others, you can change the mosaic method from the Image layer. This way, you only impact your display and do not permanently impact others when viewing or accessing the mosaic dataset. There is always a default mosaic method.
Can a mosaic dataset display a checkerboard pattern?
However, the mosaic dataset fails to display as expected when shared to another machine on the same network, and instead, a checkerboard pattern displays. The image below displays the checkerboard pattern of a mosaic dataset preview in ArcCatalog.
How are the overlapping areas defined in mosaicked?
Blend—The overlapping areas will be a blend of the cell values that overlap along the edge of each raster dataset in the mosaicked image. By default, the edge is defined by the footprint or the seamline for each raster. Sum—The overlapping areas will contain the total cell values from all the overlapping cells.
How does blend work in a mosaic dataset?
Mean—The overlapping areas will contain the mean cell values from all the overlapping cells. Blend—The overlapping areas will be a blend of the cell values that overlap; this blend value relies on an algorithm that is weight based and dependent on the distance from the cells to the edge within the overlapping area.
