Examples using NoData Interpretation

You can specify values for either or both of the NoData Values and Included Ranges.

The NoData values can be specified for each band. You can specify more than one value by entering a space-delimited list.

The included ranges can be specified for each band by specifying a minimum and maximum value; any values outside the range will be returned as NoData. A pixel is included if the pixel's value falls within any of the ranges specified. Therefore, if band 1 has a range of 5–10 and band 2 has a range of 15–20, and the pixel value for band 1 is 8, then this pixel will not be masked out.
