ArcGIS Image Server 12.0 includes updates, enhancements, new tools, and improved functionality.
If you're upgrading from 11.5 or an earlier release to ArcGIS Image Server 12.0, you must reauthorize the software. You can obtain a new license file from My Esri.
Map Viewer
The subsections below describe imagery display and raster analysis updates to Map Viewer.
- When styling an imagery layer, processing template, or variable, you can now register your changes as a preset style, which allows you to switch between different layer visualizations without reverting to default styling.
- Enhanced Filter tool in Map Viewer.
Raster analysis
Raster analysis tools and function updates are described below.
Environments
Tools and raster functions that honor the Cell size environment now support an empty option. You can accept the default cell size setting or specify different numerical values, a raster dataset, or a keyword setting. Tools that use maximum of inputs or another setting as the default continue to do so.
Raster analysis tools
The Zonal Statistics tool and raster function, and Zonal Statistics as Table tool now use the cell size of the value raster as the analysis cell size for both raster and feature zone input by default.
The overall performance of these two zonal tools have been improved by leveraging up to all available processors. By default, the tools will take advantage of up to 80% of available processors. We have also addressed memory usage issues when a large number of zones are specified along with a large number of processors.
Raster functions
The following raster functions have been enhanced:
- The style of the Raster Function Editor is updated to provide a consistent experience across the website.
- Access the new Raster Function Editor directly from the Add New Item dialogue.
- Parameters in a raster function template are now only visible as variables if IsPublic is enabled. Previously, if IsPublic was not enabled for any parameters, all parameters were exposed as variables to run the function template.
ArcGIS REST API
The updates described below were made to ArcGIS REST API.
Raster analysis tasks
ZonalStatistics and ZonalStatisticsAsTable—These tasks now use the cell size and the spatial reference of the value raster by default.
