Attribute Table function

Notes

Keep the following in mind when using the Attribute Table function:

  • This function supports only 8-bit raster inputs.
  • You can assign an existing attribute table with a defined color scheme, or you can create a new color attribute table.
  • If the table contains Red, Green, and Blue fields, values in those fields will be used similar to a color map when rendering the image.
  • The attribute table is referenced when using this function even when it is not stored in the dataset, such as with raster datasets that contain internal attribute tables.
  • When the dataset is displayed, it can be symbolized based on the table values. When a pixel is queried, the table values will be returned.

Parameters

The parameters for the Attribute Table function are described below.

ParameterDescription

Raster

The input raster.

Add an attribute table manually

To manually add an attribute table, complete the following steps:

  1. For the Table Type parameter, choose Manual.

  2. The current range of values to choose from is between -127 and 127.

  3. Optionally, provide a base name for the classes associated with each unique value, and set the color scheme and the transparency.
