Exp (Spatial Analyst)

License Level:BasicStandardAdvanced

Summary

Calculates the base e exponential of the cells in a raster.

Illustration

OutRas = Exp(InRas1)

Usage

Syntax

Exp (in_raster_or_constant)
ParameterExplanationData Type
in_raster_or_constant

The input values for which to find the base e exponential.

In order to use a number as an input for this parameter, the cell size and extent must first be set in the environment.

Raster Layer | Constant

Return Value

NameExplanationData Type
out_raster

The output raster.

The cell values are the base e exponential of the input values.

Code Sample

Exp example 1 (Python window)

This example calculates the base e exponential of the input raster values, and returns the result as a TIFF raster.

import arcpy
from arcpy import env
from arcpy.sa import *
env.workspace = "C:/sapyexamples/data"
outExp = Exp("landuse")
outExp.save("C:/sapyexamples/output/outexp.tif")
Exp example 2 (stand-alone script)

This example calculates the base e exponential of the input raster values.

# Name: Exp_Ex_02.py
# Description: Calculates the base e exponential of cells in a raster
# Requirements: Spatial Analyst Extension

# Import system modules
import arcpy
from arcpy import env
from arcpy.sa import *

# Set environment settings
env.workspace = "C:/sapyexamples/data"

# Set local variables
inRaster = "landuse"

# Check out the ArcGIS Spatial Analyst extension license
arcpy.CheckOutExtension("Spatial")

# Execute Exp
outExp = Exp(inRaster)

# Save the output 
outExp.save("C:/sapyexamples/output/outexp")
