Golden Raster Tools

Overview

Transform Data

Create accurate and precise raster datasets. When you create raster datasets with Raster Tools, you will achieve more complete and accurate representations of your real-life data. Raster Tools, an Esri ArcGIS add-in, gives you more interpolation options and more control interpolation parameters. Represent your data at its best with Raster Tools.

Trusted Solution

Raster Tool’s interpolation algorithms are the same, well-known algorithms found in Surfer, our 2D and 3D mapping, modeling, and analysis program. These algorithms have helped scientists and engineers across the globe transform point data into high-quality raster data sets, ready to be mapped and modeled.

Feature

Create High-Quality Raster Datasets

Have complete confidence in the accuracy of your raster dataset. Raster Tools, an Esri ArcGIS add-in, gives you more control over interpolation methods and parameters than what’s natively available. Twelve different interpolation methods and numerous interpolation options make it easy for you to create accurate rasters. Data can be either regularly or irregularly spaced XYZ data or point feature sets.

Streamlined Workflows

Work in a single environment. Raster Tools operates directly within the ArcGIS interface. This powerful tool steps you through the entire raster creation process. With a few clicks of the mouse, specify your interpolation parameters for input data, search neighborhood, and output raster datasets, and the output raster is automatically added to your map and saved to personal and file geodatabases. Raster Tools streamlines your workflows.
