Label | Explanation | Data Type |
Mosaic Dataset | The mosaic dataset that will be synchronized. | Mosaic Layer |
Query Definition (Optional) | An SQL expression to select which mosaic dataset items will be synchronized. If an expression is not provided, all dataset items will be updated. | SQL Expression |
Update With New Items
(Optional) | Specifies whether new items will be included when synchronizing as well as the options to use under the Update With New Items Options submenu. If you use this option, the item's workspace will be searched for new data. When data is added to the mosaic dataset, it will use the same raster type as the other items in the same workspace.
| Boolean |
Synchronize Stale Items Only (Optional) | Specifies whether mosaic dataset items will be updated only when the underlying raster datasets have been modified due to synchronizing. For example, building pyramids or updating the georeferencing of rasters will affect how the overviews are rendered.
| Boolean |
Update Cell Size Ranges
(Optional) | Specifies whether cell size ranges for the mosaic dataset will be recalculated.
| Boolean |
Update Boundary (Optional) | Specifies whether the boundary that shows the full extent of the mosaic dataset will be rebuilt. Check this parameter if syncing will change the extent of the mosaic dataset.
| Boolean |
Update Overviews (Optional) | Specifies whether obsolete overviews will be updated. The overview becomes obsolete if any underlying rasters have been modified due to synchronizing.
| Boolean |
Build Raster Pyramids (Optional) | Specifies whether pyramids will be built for the specified mosaic dataset items. Pyramids can be built for each raster item in the mosaic dataset. Pyramids can improve the speed at which each raster is displayed.
Pyramids will not be built for items that were added due to synchronization. | Boolean |
Calculate Statistics (Optional) | Specifies whether statistics will be calculated for the specified mosaic dataset items. Statistics are required for a mosaic dataset when performing certain tasks, such as applying a contrast stretch.
Statistics will not be calculated for items that were added due to synchronization. | Boolean |
Build Thumbnails (Optional) | Specifies whether thumbnails will be built for the specified mosaic dataset items. Thumbnails are small, highly resampled images that can be created for each raster item in the mosaic definition. Thumbnails can be accessed when the mosaic dataset is accessed as an image service and will display as part of the item description.
Thumbnails will not be built for items that were added due to synchronization. | Boolean |
Build Item Cache
(Optional) |
Choose whether to build a cache for the specified mosaic dataset items. A cache can be built when you've added data using the LAS, Terrain, or LAS dataset raster types.
A cache will not be built for items that were added due to synchronization. | Boolean |
Rebuild Raster From Data Source
(Optional) | Specifies whether the raster items will be rebuilt from the data source using the original raster type.
This only affects items that will be synchronized. This parameter is not applicable if the Update With New Items parameter is checked. | Boolean |
Update Fields
(Optional) | Specifies whether the fields in the table will be updated. This only affects items that will be synchronized.
If you update the fields, you can control which fields are updated using the Fields To Update parameter. If you made edits to some of the fields, you can deselect them using the Fields To Update parameter. | Boolean |
Fields To Update
(Optional) | The fields that will be updated. This parameter is only valid if the Update Fields parameter is checked. If you made edits to some of the fields, you can deselect them. The RASTER field can be refreshed, even if the Rebuild Raster From Data Source parameter is unchecked. However, if Rebuild Raster From Data Source is checked, the RASTER field will be rebuilt, even if the Fields To Update parameter is unchecked. | String |
Update Existing Items
(Optional) | Specifies whether existing items in the mosaic dataset will be updated. If you check this parameter, you must specify the options to update under the Update Existing Items Options submenu.
| Boolean |
Remove Items With Broken Data Source (Optional) | Specifies whether items with broken links will be removed. Ensure that all network connections are working properly. This tool will remove any items that cannot be accessed.
| Boolean |
Skip Existing Items
(Optional) | Specifies whether existing mosaic dataset items will be skipped or updated with the modified files from disk. To use this parameter, the Update With New Items parameter must be checked.
| Boolean |
Refresh Aggregate Information
(Optional) | Specifies whether data that may have been removed from the mosaic dataset will be included. To use this parameter, the Update Existing Items parameter must be unchecked.
| Boolean |
Estimate Mosaic Dataset Statistics
| Specifies whether statistics on the mosaic dataset will be estimated.
| Boolean |
