Mosaicking raster datasets to a raster dataset in a geodatabase
This article shows the best practice to mosaic multiple raster datasets into a raster dataset stored in ArcSDE or a file geodatabase using the geoprocessing mosaic tool class. You can change any options set in the following code example according to your requirements:
[Java]
// Use GP Mosaic tool clas to mosaic a list of input rasters to the target GDB(file GDB or ArcSDE) raster
Mosaic mosaic = new Mosaic();
mosaic.setInputs("c:/tempdata/air/air1.tif;c:/tempdata/air/air2.img");
mosaic.setTarget("C:/tempdata/new.gdb/AIRPHOTOS");
// Optional parameters, should be set according to data properties and mosaicking requirements
// Modify or remove any statement as necessary
// Set background value to be ignored
mosaic.setBackgroundValue(0);
// Set Nodata value
mosaic.setNodataValue(0);
// Set Mosaic Mode
mosaic.setMosaicType("LAST");
// Set Mosaic Colormap mode
mosaic.setColormap("MATCH");
// Set Mosaic tolerance
mosaic.setMosaickingTolerance(0.45);
GeoProcessor geoprocessor = new GeoProcessor();
// Execute the tool to mosaic the input raster dataset to the target raster
Object outRaster = geoprocessor.execute(mosaic, null);
