Clip 1 2 3 – Snippet Management

Create new snippets from the clipboard or via the easy-to-use snippet editor. As mentioned, besides code snippets Snippet Monkey supports plain text, images, date and time (your choice of format), nested snippets, and cursor location commands. Snippet Monkey isn’t 100% free but rather shareware – should you choose to pay it’s only $12 though. So, if you ever change your mind and want to “un”trim the clip, repeat Steps 2, 3 and 4 but slide the trim indicator back to its original location. To adjust the length of time that a still (photo) appears in the movie, click on the still, click the Edit tab, and in the Duration drop-down box, select the length of time that you want the. Real people just like you are kissing the idea of punching the clock for someone else goodbye, and embracing a new way of living. The internet economy is exploding, and there are literally THOUSANDS of great earnings opportunities available right now, all just one click away.

Summary

Cuts out a portion of a raster dataset, mosaic dataset, or image service layer.

Usage

  • This tool allows you to extract a portion of a raster dataset based on a template extent. The clip output includes any pixels that intersect the template extent. To extract a portion of a feature dataset, use the Clip tool in the Analysis toolbox.

  • The clipped area is specified either by a rectangular envelope using minimum and maximum x- and y-coordinates or by using an output extent file. If the clip extent specified is not aligned with the input raster dataset, this tool verifies that the proper alignment is used. This may cause the output to have a slightly different extent than specified in the tool.

  • An existing raster or vector layer can be used as the clip extent. If you are using a feature class as the output extent, you have the option to clip the raster by the minimum bounding rectangle of the feature class or by the polygon geometry of the features. If clipping geometry is used, the pixel depth of the output may be promoted. Therefore, make sure that the output format can support the proper pixel depth.

  • You can also use the selected features within the display as the clipping extent. If a feature in the feature class is selected and Use Input Features for Clipping Geometry is checked (clipping_geometry is set to ClippingGeometry in Python), the output clips out the areas that are selected. If a feature in the feature class is selected but Use Input Features for Clipping Geometry is not checked (set to NONE in Python), the output clips out the minimum bounding rectangle for that feature.

  • You can save your output to BIL, BIP, BMP, BSQ, DAT, Esri Grid , GIF, IMG, JPEG, JPEG 2000, PNG, TIFF, MRF, CRF, or any geodatabase raster dataset.

  • The extent values must be in the same spatial coordinates and units as the raster dataset.

  • This tool supports multidimensional raster data. To run the tool on each slice in the multidimensional raster and generate a multidimensional raster output, be sure to save the output to CRF.

    Supported input multidimensional dataset types include multidimensional raster layer, mosaic dataset, image service, and CRF.

Syntax

ParameterExplanationData Type

The raster dataset, mosaic dataset, or image service to be clipped.

Mosaic Dataset; Mosaic Layer; Raster Dataset; Raster Layer
rectangle

The four coordinates that define the extent of the bounding box used to clip the raster in this order: X-Minimum, Y-Minimum, X-Maximum, Y-Maximum.

If the clip extent specified is not aligned with the input raster dataset, the Clip tool verifies that the proper alignment is used. This may cause the output to have a slightly different extent than specified in the tool.

Envelope; Feature Class; Feature Layer

The name, location, and format of the dataset being created. Make sure that it can support the necessary bit depth.

When storing the raster dataset in a file format, you need to specify the file extension:

  • .bilEsri BIL
  • .bipEsri BIP
  • .bmp—BMP
  • .bsqEsri BSQ
  • .dat—ENVI DAT
  • .gif—GIF
  • .img—ERDAS IMAGINE
  • .jpg—JPEG
  • .jp2—JPEG 2000
  • .png—PNG
  • .tif—TIFF
  • .mrf—MRF
  • .crf—CRF
  • No extension for Esri Grid

When storing a raster dataset in a geodatabase, do not add a file extension to the name of the raster dataset.

When storing your raster dataset to a JPEG file, a JPEG 2000 file, a TIFF file, or a geodatabase, you can specify a Compression Type and Compression Quality in the geoprocessing Environments.

Raster Dataset
in_template_dataset

A raster dataset or feature class to use as the extent. The clip output includes any pixels that intersect the minimum bounding rectangle.

If a feature class is used as the output extent and you want to clip the raster based on the polygon features, set the clipping_geometry parameter to ClippingGeometry. This option may promote the pixel depth of the output. Therefore, make sure that the output format can support the proper pixel depth.

Raster Layer; Feature Layer
nodata_value

The value for pixels to be considered as NoData.

String
clipping_geometry

Specifies whether the data will be clipped to the minimum bounding rectangle or to the geometry of the feature class.

  • NONEThe minimum bounding rectangle will be used to clip the data. This is the default.
  • ClippingGeometryThe geometry of the specified feature class will be used to clip the data. The pixel depth of the output may be increased; therefore, make sure that the output format can support the proper pixel depth.
Boolean
(Optional)

Specifies the extent to use in the clipping output.

  • MAINTAIN_EXTENTThe number of columns and rows will be adjusted and the pixels will be resampled to exactly match the clipping extent specified.
  • NO_MAINTAIN_EXTENTThe cell alignment of the input raster will be maintained and the output extent will be adjusted accordingly.
Boolean

Why reinvent the wheel? And by extension, why keep re-typing or copy/pasting commonly used pieces of code over and over again?

Copying and pasting pieces of code into text files are disorganized and wastes your precious time. Instead, you can use code snippets to managers those code snippets you use on a regular basis. These applications let you save, organize, and call upon your code snippets whenever you need them – for practically all of the major programming languages.
