Geometry Gradient

This tool computes geometry gradient datasets. The tool has the following options:

Input Parameters

  • Input dataset – Select the dataset to use in the gradient computations.
  • Gradient vector – Select to create a gradient vector dataset.
  • Gradient magnitude – Select to create a gradient magnitude dataset. The gradient is calculated as the run divided by the rise.
  • Gradient direction – Select to create a gradient direction dataset. Gives the direction in degrees of the maximum gradient at each point

Output Parameters

  • Output gradient vector dataset name – Enter the name for the new gradient vector dataset.
  • Output gradient magnitude dataset name – Enter the name for the new gradient magnitude dataset.
  • Output gradient direction dataset name – Enter the name for the new gradient direction dataset.
