Cached Raster function

The Cached Raster function creates a preprocessed cache at the point in the function chain where it's added. It is typically inserted in a function chain, on top of the functions that can impede performance due to more computationally intensive processing. These functions can include the Convolution, Band Arithmetic, Pan-sharpening, multiple Arithmetic functions, and the Geometric function when it's used to perform orthorectification.

CautionCaution:

This function is only supported when added to the function chain for an item in the mosaic dataset. It is not valid to add this function to the mosaic dataset's function chain or to the function chain on a layer.

You can insert this function when accessing the function chain for each raster in a mosaic dataset, using the Batch Functions Editor Wizard, or using the Define Mosaic Dataset Item Cache tool. You can generate the cache for each item when adding the function using the Define Mosaic Dataset Item Cache tool, or generate or update the cache using the Synchronize Mosaic Dataset tool (check the Build Cache option).

The inputs to this function are the following:
