Raster Query Settings
Feature Description
When querying raster values at the mouse position, you can configure whether search results display raster information and slope/aspect values, along with parameters like elevation scaling factor.
Steps
- In the "Spatial Analysis" Tab's "Raster Analysis" group, click the "Raster Query" drop-down button and select "Raster Query Settings" to open the "Grid Query Parameter Settings" dialog.
- Display Raster Information: Check this box to show grid row, column, and raster value information of the selected cell in search results. Uncheck to hide raster information.
- Display Slope and Aspect: Check this box to display slope/aspect values of the selected cell in search results. Uncheck to hide these values.
- Elevation Scaling Factor: Required when elevation unit differs from x/y coordinate units. Multiply elevation values by this factor to align units. Example: For x/y in meters and z in feet (1 foot = 0.3048 meters), use 0.3048. Value 1 indicates no scaling.
Recommended for data with projected coordinate systems (units: meters). For geographic coordinate systems, specify appropriate z-factors at corresponding latitudes. Use the following z-factors when x/y units are degrees and z unit is meters:
Latitude Z-factor 0 0.00000898 10 0.00000912 20 0.00000956 30 0.00001036 40 0.00001171 50 0.00001395 60 0.00001792 70 0.00002619 80 0.00005156
- Click OK to complete raster value query configuration.
