All Implemented Interfaces:

GPTool

public class Expand
extends AbstractGPTool

Expands specified zones of a raster by a specified number of cells. The Expand tool is contained in the Spatial Analyst Tools tool box.

Usage tips:

• The specified zone values are considered to be foreground zones, while the remaining zone values are considered to be background zones. With this tool the foreground zones are allowed to expand into the background zones.
• When two foreground zones compete to expand into the same background zone, the conflict is resolved based on the value of the majority of surrounding cells.
• NoData cells are always considered background cells; therefore, neighboring cells of any value can expand into NoData cells. NoData cells will never expand into their neighbors.

Constructor Detail

Expand

public Expand()

Creates the Expand tool with defaults.

Initializes the array of tool parameters with the default values specified when the tool was created.

Expand

public Expand(Object inRaster,
              Object outRaster,
              int numberCells,
              Object zoneValues)

Creates the Expand tool with the required parameters.

Initializes the array of tool parameters with the values as specified for the required parameters and with the default values for the other parameters.

Parameters:

inRaster - the input raster for which the identified zones are to be expanded it must be of integer type.

outRaster - the output generalized raster. the specified zones of the input raster will be expanded by the specified number of cells.

numberCells - the number of cells to expand each specified zone by. the value must be an integer greater than 1.

zoneValues - the list of zone values to expand. the zone values must be integers. They can be in any order.
