GIS Programming Module 6

This week we learned about manipulating rasters with scripting. We experimented with listing rasters, working with raster objects, using map algebra in operators and we worked with classes to define raster tool parameters. 

The main objective of this Module was to create a raster with a given set of parameters. The raster had to have a slope, aspect and land cover of a certain type. 

Below is a flowchart that I came up with that goes through the steps I came up with to accomplish the objectives of the assignment. 

The final raster is a combination of 5 distinct variables that were put together to come up with a single raster that contains land cover with a slope between 5 and 20 degrees and an aspect between 150 and 270 degrees. Below is a screenshot from ArcPro with my final raster.

This assignment required the use of many variables and a good amount of coding. When so much is going on it is a good idea to go through and ensure that all variables are referenced correctly and that working environments are set appropriately.
