Plus (3D Analyst)

Summary

Adds (sums) the values of two rasters on a cell-by-cell basis.

Usage

  • The order of inputs is irrelevant for this tool.

  • If both inputs are integer, the output will be an integer raster; otherwise, it will be a floating-point raster.

  • If both inputs are single-band rasters or one of the inputs is a constant, the output will be a single-band raster.

  • If both inputs are multiband rasters, the tool will perform the operation on each band from one input, and the output will be a multiband raster. The number of bands in each multiband input must be the same.

  • If one of the inputs is a multiband raster and the other input is a constant, the tool will perform the operation using the constant value for each band in the multiband input, and the output will be a multiband raster.

  • If both inputs are multidimensional raster data with the same number of variables, the tool will perform the operation for all slices with the same dimension value. The output will be a multidimensional raster in CRF format. The variables in the inputs must have at least one common dimension and one common dimensional value for this tool to process; otherwise, an error will occur.

    If both inputs have one variable but different names, uncheck the Match Multidimensional Variable geoprocessing environment (set arcpy.env.matchMultidimensionalVariable = False in Python) before running the tool.

    If one of the inputs is a multidimensional raster and the other input is a constant, the tool will perform the operation for all slices for all variables using the constant value, and the output will be a multidimensional raster.

Parameters

LabelExplanationData Type
Input raster or constant value 1

The input whose values will be added to.

A number can be used as an input for this parameter, provided a raster is specified for the other parameter. To specify a number for both inputs, the cell size and extent must first be set in the environment.

Raster Layer; Constant
Input raster or constant value 2

The input whose values will be added to the first input.

A number can be used as an input for this parameter, provided a raster is specified for the other parameter. To specify a number for both inputs, the cell size and extent must first be set in the environment.

Raster Layer; Constant
Output raster

The output raster.

The cell values are the sum of the first input added to the second.

Raster Dataset

Return Value

LabelExplanationData Type
Output raster

The output raster.

The cell values are the sum of the first input added to the second.

Raster

arcpy.ddd.Plus(in_raster_or_constant1, in_raster_or_constant2, out_raster)
NameExplanationData Type
in_raster_or_constant1

The input whose values will be added to.

A number can be used as an input for this parameter, provided a raster is specified for the other parameter. To specify a number for both inputs, the cell size and extent must first be set in the environment.

Raster Layer; Constant
in_raster_or_constant2

The input whose values will be added to the first input.

A number can be used as an input for this parameter, provided a raster is specified for the other parameter. To specify a number for both inputs, the cell size and extent must first be set in the environment.

Raster Layer; Constant
out_raster

The output raster.

The cell values are the sum of the first input added to the second.

Raster Dataset

Return Value

NameExplanationData Type
out_raster

The output raster.

The cell values are the sum of the first input added to the second.
