Spatial Analyst extension<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>For the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.esri.com\/software\/arcgis\/extensions\/spatialanalyst\">Spatial Analyst<\/a> extension product, there some changes to environment behavior, some tools have received new parameters, and more tools have been enabled for parallel processing.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Interactive Python Window<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Spatial Analyst tools can use a new <a href=\"http:\/\/pro.arcgis.com\/en\/pro-app\/arcpy\/classes\/env.htm\">ArcPy environment<\/a>, <tt>arcpy.env.buildStatsAndRATForTempRaster<\/tt>, that can be set to <tt>true<\/tt> in the interactive Python window in the application to improve the display of the raster output. While this property is accessible and can be set in standalone Python scripts, it will have no effect as the output is not displayed.<\/p>\n<p>It is a Boolean environment that specifies whether or not to calculate statistics and build a raster attribute table for a temporary raster created from an interactive Python session while adding it to the map. It is True by default for all Spatial Analyst tools. When set to False, the statistics will be approximate for the purpose of symbolizing output raster layers, and no raster attribute table will be built.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Distance toolset<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Euclidean distance tools have a new parameter option, <tt>distance_method<\/tt>.\u00a0 With the Geodesic option, the distances are calculated on the ellipsoid, which means that the results of the operation do not change regardless of the input or output projection.\u00a0 The default Planar option will return the same result as in previous releases. The tools are: <em>Euclidean Allocation<\/em> (<a href=\"http:\/\/pro.arcgis.com\/en\/pro-app\/tool-reference\/spatial-analyst\/euclidean-allocation.htm\">Pro<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/desktop.arcgis.com\/en\/arcmap\/latest\/tools\/spatial-analyst-toolbox\/euclidean-allocation.htm\">ArcMap<\/a>), <em>Euclidean Direction<\/em> (<a href=\"http:\/\/pro.arcgis.com\/en\/pro-app\/tool-reference\/spatial-analyst\/euclidean-direction.htm\">Pro<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/desktop.arcgis.com\/en\/arcmap\/latest\/tools\/spatial-analyst-toolbox\/euclidean-direction.htm\">ArcMap<\/a>), and <em>Euclidean Distance<\/em> (<a href=\"http:\/\/pro.arcgis.com\/en\/pro-app\/tool-reference\/spatial-analyst\/euclidean-distance.htm\">Pro<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/desktop.arcgis.com\/en\/arcmap\/latest\/tools\/spatial-analyst-toolbox\/euclidean-distance.htm\">ArcMap<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>An improvement was made to the default behavior for a number of the Cost and Path distance tools.\u00a0 The processing extent and spatial reference now default to that of the input cost raster.\u00a0 This will improve the accuracy of the results, and better meets the expected behavior. What&#8217;s the reason behind this change?\u00a0 Previously, the processing extent defaulted to the input source dataset, and since that is often smaller than that of the cost surface extent, the resulting cost paths were limited.\u00a0 Now, the tools will return the true least-cost path between locations within the full extent of the cost surface. \u00a0The full list of the seven affected tools is: <em>Cost Allocation<\/em> (<a href=\"http:\/\/pro.arcgis.com\/en\/pro-app\/tool-reference\/spatial-analyst\/cost-allocation.htm\">Pro<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/desktop.arcgis.com\/en\/arcmap\/latest\/tools\/spatial-analyst-toolbox\/cost-allocation.htm\">ArcMap<\/a>), <em>Cost Back Link<\/em> (<a href=\"http:\/\/pro.arcgis.com\/en\/pro-app\/tool-reference\/spatial-analyst\/cost-back-link.htm\">Pro<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/desktop.arcgis.com\/en\/arcmap\/latest\/tools\/spatial-analyst-toolbox\/cost-back-link.htm\">ArcMap<\/a>), <em>Cost Connectivity<\/em> (<a href=\"http:\/\/pro.arcgis.com\/en\/pro-app\/tool-reference\/spatial-analyst\/cost-connectivity.htm\">Pro<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/desktop.arcgis.com\/en\/arcmap\/latest\/tools\/spatial-analyst-toolbox\/cost-connectivity.htm\">ArcMap<\/a>), <em>Cost Distance<\/em> (<a href=\"http:\/\/pro.arcgis.com\/en\/pro-app\/tool-reference\/spatial-analyst\/cost-distance.htm\">Pro<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/desktop.arcgis.com\/en\/arcmap\/latest\/tools\/spatial-analyst-toolbox\/cost-distance.htm\">ArcMap<\/a>), <em>Path Distance<\/em> (<a href=\"http:\/\/pro.arcgis.com\/en\/pro-app\/tool-reference\/spatial-analyst\/path-distance.htm\">Pro<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/desktop.arcgis.com\/en\/arcmap\/latest\/tools\/spatial-analyst-toolbox\/path-distance.htm\">ArcMap<\/a>), <em>Path Distance Allocation<\/em> (<a href=\"http:\/\/pro.arcgis.com\/en\/pro-app\/tool-reference\/spatial-analyst\/path-distance-allocation.htm\">Pro<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/desktop.arcgis.com\/en\/arcmap\/latest\/tools\/spatial-analyst-toolbox\/path-distance-allocation.htm\">ArcMap<\/a>), <em>Path Distance Back Link<\/em> (<a href=\"http:\/\/pro.arcgis.com\/en\/pro-app\/tool-reference\/spatial-analyst\/path-distance-back-link.htm\">Pro<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/desktop.arcgis.com\/en\/arcmap\/latest\/tools\/spatial-analyst-toolbox\/path-distance-back-link.htm\">ArcMap<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Extraction toolset<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>For the <em>Extract By Mask<\/em> \u00a0(<a href=\"http:\/\/pro.arcgis.com\/en\/pro-app\/tool-reference\/spatial-analyst\/extract-by-mask.htm\">Pro<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/desktop.arcgis.com\/en\/arcmap\/latest\/tools\/spatial-analyst-toolbox\/extract-by-mask.htm\">ArcMap<\/a>) tool, the input raster will now be used as the default snap raster. \u00a0This improves the accuracy of the output by ensuring the correct alignment of the feature mask with the value raster.
