Build Image Pyramids
Feature Description
Datasets that support the creation of image pyramids include image datasets, raster datasets, and raster files directly opened as a datasource (currently supporting TIFF, TIF, and IMG formats).
Feature Entry
- Start Tab -> Data Processing drop-down -> Image Pyramids -> Image Pyramids Manager Dialog Box.
- Workspace Manager -> Right-click menu of the image (or raster) dataset -> Build Image Pyramids -> Image Pyramids Manager Dialog Box.
- Toolbox -> Data Management -> Build Pyramids -> Build Image Data Pyramids/Build Raster Data Pyramids.
Parameter Description
- Dataset: The name of the dataset for which image pyramids are created.
- Datasource: The datasource where the dataset for creating image pyramids is located.
- Image Pyramids: Indicates whether the dataset has image pyramids created. Displays "Yes" if created; otherwise, displays "No".
- Width and Height: Displays the resolution of the image or raster dataset.
- Resampling Methods: The program provides the following resampling methods:
- Nearest Neighbor: Assigns the nearest pixel value from the input raster dataset or image dataset to the corresponding pixel in the output dataset.
- Average: Computes the mean of all valid values for resampling.
