Description
The Raster Analysis service contains a number of tasks that you can access and use in your applications. These tasks are arranged below in categories of logical groupings, which do not affect how you access or use the tasks in any way.
Note:
Starting in ArcGIS Enterprise 10.6, an input image service can be secured. If your raster function requires a secured image service as an input, you must provide a token, and possibly a referrer, along with the URL so the analysis service can access it. A long-lived token can be obtained from the token server. For more details, see Acquire ArcGIS tokens.
Tasks that analyze patterns
The tasks that analyze patterns are described in the following table:
Task | Description |

The ComputeChangeRaster task is used to evaluate the difference between two input rasters, and generates a change raster output service. This tool supports continuous raster data and categorical raster data. When the raster inputs are two categorical rasters, the output change raster includes an attribute table containing all the permutations of the from and to classes as well as the pixel counts for all changed and unchanged classes. | |
The InterpolatePoints task predicts values at new locations based on measurements from a collection of points. The tool takes point data with values at each point and returns a raster of predicted values. |

The UninstallDeepLearningModel operation is used to uninstall the uploaded deep learning model package (.dlpk) from the raster analysis image server. It will delete the named deep learning model from the image server's configuration store but not the portal item. |
