Greater Than Equal (Spatial Analyst)

Summary

Performs a Relational greater-than-or-equal-to operation on two inputs on a cell-by-cell basis.

Returns 1 for cells where the first raster is greater than or equal to the second raster and 0 if it is not.

Usage

  • Two inputs are necessary for this relational evaluation to take place.

  • The order of inputs is relevant for this tool.

  • 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 being tested to determine if it is greater than or equal to the second 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
Input raster or constant value 2

The input against which the first input is tested to be greater than or equal 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

Return Value

LabelExplanationData Type
Output raster

The output raster.

The output cell values will be either integer 0 or 1, or NoData if any input cell value is NoData.

Raster

GreaterThanEqual(in_raster_or_constant1, in_raster_or_constant2)
NameExplanationData Type
in_raster_or_constant1

The input being tested to determine if it is greater than or equal to the second 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
in_raster_or_constant2

The input against which the first input is tested to be greater than or equal 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

Return Value

NameExplanationData Type
out_raster

The output raster.

The output cell values will be either integer 0 or 1, or NoData if any input cell value is NoData.
