ArcGIS Spatial Analyst adds a comprehensive set of advanced
spatial modeling and analysis tools to the ArcGIS Desktop. Using ArcGIS
Spatial Analyst, you can derive new information from your existing data,
analyze spatial relationships, and build spatial models integrating core
ArcGIS Desktop and ArcGIS Spatial Analyst tools.
With
ArcGIS Spatial Analyst you can
-
Find suitable locations.
- Find
the best path between locations.
- Perform
integrated raster/vector analysis.
- Perform
distance and cost-of-travel analyses.
- Perform
statistical analysis based on the local environment, small neighborhoods,
or predetermined zones.
- Generate
new data using simple image processing tools.
- Interpolate
data values for a study area based on samples.
- Clean
up a variety of data for further analysis or display.
Because ArcGIS Spatial Analyst is so strongly integrated with the ArcGIS
Desktop geoprocessing environment, it is easier than ever to solve complicated
analysis problems. Geoprocessing analysis models are not only easy to
create and implement, but they are also self documenting, so anyone can
quickly understand your spatial analysis process. Thousands of ArcGIS
users are leveraging this modeling environment to take full advantage
of their data and make better decisions.
