Local Function
The Local function allows you to perform bitwise, conditional, logical, mathematical, and statistical operations on a pixel-by-pixel basis. Depending on the operation type, it may require 1, 2, 3 or n input rasters. You may need to stack a few Local functions together in order to achieve some of the conditional and logical functions.
The inputs for this function are the following:
- Input
- Operations
- Cell Size
- Extent
Input
There are several inputs that can be used within the Local function. The Local function only works on a single band. If you have a multiple band raster, use the Extract Band function to specify which band to use in the Local function.
Add raster from disk | Add a raster that is on disk. You can add raster datasets, mosaic datasets, and raster products. |
Add function chain | Add a function chain as an input. |
Add scalar | Add a scalar value. Scalar values must be numeric. |
Add reference to selected input | Add a referenced copy of the selected raster or the selected function chain input. A change in the referenced raster or the function chain will be reflected in this referenced copy. This can be useful when creating many Local functions that may use the same referenced input. |
Add copy of selected input | Add a static copy of the selected function chain input. A change in the copied function chain will not reflect this static copy. This can be useful when creating many similar Local functions where there is a slight change in the function chains. |

The operations will perform the specified function on the input rasters. The Operation information box informs you which Operation was chosen and how many inputs are needed.
