ERDAS IMAGINE 2014 Issues Resolved

1

CR # Summary Component Description / How to Reproduce

1 1-1HZK-18100 Raster Attribute Editor shows the wrong R/G/B value.

2D View Customer reports R, G, B values are rounded differently in each color column and present slightly different RGB values when working with color pallet (thematic) data. This does not affect the DN value. Research indicates the problem exists in 9.2, 9.3, 2010, 2011, 2013, and has been fixed in 2014.

2 1-79SJTJ Applying Sharpness shows undesired results in NoData regions

2D View When NoData is correctly set for the image file in the Image Metadata, visual artifacts are no longer present.

3 1-62QHXJ Cannot reshape AOI when zoomed in on imagery

2D View The editing of an AOI when zoomed in using the mouse wheel is difficult and sometimes nearly impossible. Steps to repeat: Load image in viewer; select Drawing tab and draw polygon aoi (create new aoi); Select aoi and Reshape tool.; vertices are highlighted; zoom in on one vertex; the vertex cannot be moved.

4 1-7PPLVL Swipe tools on transition tab leaves black marks on images

2D View When swiping across images black marks are left on the images as the refresh is not occurring as it should with the swipe movement.

5 1-7BABL1 Not all pixels are displaying with the transition tab on and two images in the viewer

2D View When swiping across images blank areas are left as the refresh is not occurring as it should with the swipe movement.

6 1-7BWBU5 ECW resolution layers do not edge-match with adjacent images, leaving the appearance of gaps between images

2D View Zooming out on ECW data (and other images formats as well) did not correctly render resolution layers when images are edge-matched, giving the appearance of gaps between the images. The Black lines between the images were the black background of the 2D Viewer.

7 1-7GMOA7 A drag & drop of a few shapefiles into the viewer crashes the software

2D View This issue appeared in 2013 and is addressed in 2014. If a single shapefile is dragged and dropped, there was no problem. If multiple shapefiles are dragged and dropped, a failure occurs.

8 1-86LTYN Error with drag and drop AOI across viewers

2D View Customer tried to drag and drop an AOI from the TOC (viewer 1) into the 4th viewer window. Also tried to drag and drop the AOI via the TOC. This is the error message received: File could not be loaded when dragged and dropped. Also have NEVER been able to cut and paste and AOI from or to any viewer. When this occurs you had to remove the AOI layer, save the session, reopen, re-open the AOI layer separately then do the drag and drop via the TOC

9 1-86N1CT Rescale on X & Y axes in breakpoint editor not

2D View Open a multispectral image in a 2D View Select the raster (contextual) multispectral tab, General Contrast, Breakpoints. Within the breakpoint editor, right mouse button click in the


2


working as expected histogram and choose Rescale X. Use the arrow on the left of the histogram to move the maximum value down and click apply all. It does not shift to the specified new maximum pixel value. The same occurs for Rescale Y.

10 1-7X3GKA Raster paste in preview is pasting pixels upside down and distorted

2D View There appears to be a problem with the copy and paste function in IMAGINE 2013 when copying raster data from one image to another image. The preview display when choosing the location of the where to paste the data is incorrect; it is upside down and filled with strange garbled pixel values. But when you apply the paste, save the image, and redisplay it again, it turns out that it actually worked correctly. The pasted data is not upside down and it used the correct pixel values. This is corrected in 2014.

11 1-7WN2IZ When adding files in the Batch Command Editor it looks in the wrong directory.

Batch Command Editor

When attempting to add a file in Batch Command Editor after a previous batch, it looks in the wrong directory for the file and displays a warning message. It is looking in the folder from the previous batch instead of the folder of the file for the current batch. This appeared in 2013 and is fixed in 2014.

12 1-7SLDY4 Discriminant Function Change Detection crashes when computing pixel change detection step

Classification Discriminant Function Change Detection tool works with some images, but not with others. Steps to reproduce the problem:

1. Start the Discriminant Function Change Detection tool (Raster tab > Change Detection group > Discriminant Function)

2. Choose a raster image as the Input Before Image. 3. Choose a raster image as the Input After Image. 4. Enable the checkboxes for all three output images (Additive, Subtractive, and

Combined) and enter filenames for each output image. 5. Click OK to begin processing. 6. The modeler sometimes crashes when computing the Pixel_Change_Detection step.

13 1-8AWT43 Unsupervised classification (ISODDATA) does not output correct number of classes when using AOI

Classification When performing an unsupervised classification with a polygon AOI, the resulting classified image will have 36 class values instead of the number specified in the Unsupervised Classification tool. How to reproduce the problem:

1. Launch the Unsupervised Classification tool (Raster tab > Classification group > Unsupervised menu > Unsupervised Classification).

2. Choose a TIFF file as the input file. 3. Enter a name for the output cluster layer. 4. In the Clustering Options section, select the ISODATA method and set the # of Classes


3


“from” and “to” values both to 10. 5. Click the AOI button and choose an AOI file. 6. Leave the rest of the settings as the default values and click OK. 7. Display the output classified raster image in a 2D View and display its attribute table

(Table tab > View group > Show Attributes). 8. You will notice that there are 36 class values. This is the default number of classes

when you choose the ISODATA method, but it should be 10 as specified. 9. If you repeat the procedure and do not use an AOI file, the output classified image will

have the correct number of class values (10). 10. This problem does not occur in IMAGINE 2011 (11.0)

14 1-65S74P NoData value reset to zero during resampling process

Control Point Editor

NoData value will be reset to zero during ortho rectification process and the output image will have all its NoData values replaced by zero.

15 1-1I0K-29800 Reproject crashes computing pyramids


Reproject crashes computing pyramids with ADS imagery. The image was being projected to a custom Romanian projection.

16 1-1I0W-24700 Total RMS not available in Ribbon Interface


If Geometric Correction is done from the Ribbon interface, the Total RMS value is not visible

17 1-6ADAH5 Map information (Unknown/Cartesian) lost when export image to ECW

Data Exchange Steps to reproduce: 1. Export image (cartesian coordinate system, not full Coordinate Reference System) to

ECW 2. Map coordinates are not in the ECW file (check ECW Info in View/Edit Image

Metadata).

18 1-71FH6M Using Virtual Mosaic (VMCx) as input to Export ECW is slow

Data Exchange A local copy of a VMCx of 306 ECW v2 images writing to a new ECW v2 file using Export is slow 1. I have set the ECW cache for decode and encode to maximum. 2. The ECW Export is now a multi-threaded tiled approach and reads through Coverage

Server. 3. The time taken to mosaic these 306 image tiles into a 85,000 x 90,000 single image

was 316.1 minutes.

19 1-6J5R9Z ERDAS ER Mapper .ers files not displayed correctly in ERDAS IMAGINE

Data Exchange Created .ers files from TIFF imagery and tried to display in ERDAS IMAGINE. Steps to reproduce:

1. Open TIFF in ERDAS IMAGINE to ensure it is correct 2. Open the TIFF in ERDAS ER Mapper and Save As to .ers file. 3. Message said it was created correctly.


4


4. Open the .ers in ERDAS ER Mapper, it opens correctly. 5. Attempt to open the .ers in ERDAS IMAGINE and build pyramids. 6. Opening any .ers file in IMAGINE causes errors in the session log regarding the .ers 7. Opening the metadata causes a crash.

20 1-6JBERT DirectWrite of JP2 data (Pleiades data) to JP2 output does not place temp files in correct folder

Data Exchange When users try to orthorectify Pleiades data (provided in JP2 format) and select the output format as JP2 DirectWrite, the JP2 temp files are not created in the output folder. The problem can be seen in IMAGINE 2011.0.5 as well.

21 1-6HV0UI Imagine Fails to add ECW Opacity layer to large ECW v2 file

Data Exchange 1. Attempt to add Opacity layer using the 'Create ECW Transparency' tool using a 4GB ECW image with an AOI.

2. Incorrectly creates a very large temporary .ige file of 600GB.

22 1-7KBWMJ Add support for reading and writing stats into ECW v3 files

Data Exchange 1. The ECW v3 file format supports storing statistics and histograms in the file metadata. 2. The ECW/JP2 SDK v5.x has tools to accumulate the needed statistics and the encoding.

23 1-7RQ78L Data processing a Virtual Mosaic (VMCx) is slow

Data Exchange Creating ECW data using ECW Export is slower when using VMCx that with using older VMC.

24 1-7KXJXC Out of memory Export to ECW from VMCx of StripTIFF data

Data Exchange Need to manage memory usage with Strip TIFF data in VMCx. While Strip TIFF is very inefficient, we need to be as efficient as possible.

25 1-7IRD6Z “Orient Image to Map System” option in ECW exporter not geo-correcting data

Data Exchange Orient to Map should geo-correct the data stored in the calibration, worldfile, or RPC. All padding pixels should be automatically marked as NoData (put in opacity mask), and if possible written as NULL blocks on the ECW v3 file format. If the customer has NoData defined in the input file, this must be automatically honored and persisted in the output ECW file as NoData (put in opacity layer). The use can add more NoData into the file with an AOI or shapefile, if desired. The user can add more NoData into the file by defining values(a), if desired. If the user does not use Orient to Map, the calibration, worldfile, or RPC is written into an AUX file.

26 1-7GBA8N “Landsat-7 from USGS” importer in 2011.0.5 and 2013 unable to import “Landsat-7 *.tar.gz

Data Exchange Correct for charges made by USGS and add support for Landsat 8.

27 1-7UMTRD Enhancement add support Data Exchange Add full support for DIMAP v2 xml file format.

for DIMAP v2 for Pleiades, SPOT-6, and other data

28 1-7NGWZS ERDAS IMAGINE 11.0.5 cannot handle ECW file generated in IMAGINE2013 SP2 well

Data Exchange Does not occur for all ECW v2 files. Double-check metadata written into ECW v2 for stronger backwards compatibility.

29 1-7S7FA9 ERDAS IMAGINE does not recognize NullCellValue in ERMapper .ers files as NODATA value

Data Exchange ERDAS IMAGINE should automatically recognize and persist this as the NODATA value for the .ers image and Set / Clear NODATA as that value with no customer intervention. Stats computation and Spatial Modeler processes should not use that value. Right now, you have to manually set that value as NODATA to have it recognized correctly as NODATA.

30 1-7TJR1V ERDAS IMAGINE unable to rescale Magnetic .ers files correctly on open

Data Exchange Magnetic Datasets could not be easily displayed within ERDAS IMAGINE. Not easy to understand the workflow and the intended display of the magnetic data. No logical way to edit the breakpoints to display the .ers format correctly? a. Within ER Mapper, the Limits to Actual short cut is all that was needed to transform the image for correct display b. IMAGINE cannot change Color Lookup Table either at this point.

31 1-83IW4Q .ERS (Raster Dataset) DLL does not display band layer names

Data Exchange 1. Open newcastle_radiometrics.ers from ER Mapper Sample Data 2. Within the algorithm layer, custom band labels visible 3. ERDAS IMAGINE cannot interpret or display these band labels in a raster dataset. Only the relevant band labels; Band 1, Band 2, etc. are visible - this becomes an issue when attempting to display non-imagery data layers such as calcium, iron or magnetic readings.

32 1-83HNCN MrSID DLL not reading MrSID Alpha correctly

Data Exchange The MrSID DLL is not reading MrSID Alpha channel correctly. Our DLL sees the Alpha layer as a data layer, seeing the 3-band file as a 4-band file. What IMAGINE sees as layer 4, is the alpha channel telling us what is visible and not visible.

33 1-81TGTI ERDAS IMAGINE crashes opening an *ers file with non-standard projection

Data Exchange ERDAS IMAGINE 13.00.0002 crashes while opening an *ers file with non-standard projection. The Customer reported crashes with their .ers files. They said that they didn’t have that crash problem with ERDAS IMAGINE 11.0.5. However, ERDAS ER Mapper 13.00.0002 handles the same file by opening well without problems.

34 1-71FH5V Projective Resolution Merge - long delay after entering input file.

IMAGINE - General

Start Projective Resolution Merge For Input Panchromatic file; enter quickbird_pyramids_pan from examples data. Wait for minutes for dialog to respond. 7 minutes on a Win 7 system After looking at help, you see my input file does not meet the requirements for this function.

35 1-1HXK-18500 When you move the Y Rescaling arrow on Breakpoint editor it is difficult to move again

IMAGINE - General

Once you move the rescaling arrows on the Y axis of the breakpoint editor is difficult to move it again after you turn it loose. It is stuck. The user wants to put the selector right on the rescaling arrow, but if you do that you can't grab it. You have move slightly below and to the side of the arrow. It is tricky and makes you think it does not work.

36 1-7S7FAH Get error when entering "NullCellValue" from ERS file as NODATA

IMAGINE - General

The file Radiometrics_Grid.ers contains NullCellValue= -5E+75. When opening the file in View/Edit Image Metadata, and trying to set the NODATA to -5E+75 customer gets error: Invalid NoData value! After that the nodata pixels are not ignored in re-computing stats or in Spatial Modeler. Workaround is to enter -1.#INF as the NODATA value.

37 1-7OGXFB Thematic RRD and Stats Calculation is much slower than Athematic

IMAGINE - General

Running a subset (using old modeler) on a thematic image of 15,000 x 15,000 and a athematic image of 5000 x 5000 x 3-bands (both 8-bit), subset to new file of same size, calc rrds, calc stats, write histogram. 0:00:22 Athematic 5000x5000x3bands 0:00:43 Athematic 15000x15000x1band 0:12:19 Thematic 15000x15000 Thematic Data Creation via subset, read from server disk write to local disk 0:00:13 Data creation 0:06:09 RRD creation 0:06:22 Stats creation The zero level data creation speeds seems similar. But the rrd creation is very slow for Thematic. Also, there seems to a second pass for Stats, but when rrds are calculated, this should not be needed.

38 1-875VWD License error not shown for few commands athough process run fails for Essentials license

Installation / Licensing

Neither license error dialog is shown nor Session log has any license error details for the following commands 1.Polarimetric Classification 2.Surface Tool 3.Natural Color 4.Histogram Match 5.HCS Resolution Merge 6.Wavelet Resolution Merge

39 1-7INHPW Editing the Default Viewer X size and Y size does not work in the Preference Editor

Preferences Customer reported that Editing the Default Viewer X size and Y size in the Preference does not work. This capability was changed with the Ribbon work. The preference needs to be removed.

40 1-1IBK-30600 Need to update Projection Engine (PE.dll) to synchronize with ArcGIS 10.X

Projections ArcGIS 10.X now supports writing of PE strings generated from custom coordinate systems. IMAGINE Projection Engine needs to be updated to take advantage of this feature when we are writing out ESRI vector formats.

41 1-1IGK-33200 Cannot save projection and spheroid information of TIFF file by modifying epsg.pbl

Projections 1. Open ....\.imagine1100\projections\epsg.plb file and enter a new projection 2. Open (<IMAGINE_HOME>\etc\spheroid.tab file and add datum information. 3. Load a tif file to a viewer and open view/edit image metadata dialog. 4. Click edit->add/change projection and choose the newly added projection, click ok

and yes to confirm. 5. Save the tif layer and remove it. 6. Load tif again, the projection and spheroid information are lost. 7. For img file, the projection and spheroid information was not lost following the same

method.

42 1-1HV8-40500 EPRJ Projection system cannot read projection info of Tiff files having Custom Datum

Projections When trying to load tiffs into ER Mapper 2010.1, ER Mapper is crashing. Works fine in all previous versions. I can open the image in the IMAGINE Viewer. But when I open the ImageInfo (View/Edit ImageMetaData), ImageInfo CRASHES in 2013.1. In 2011.0.5 IMAGINE crashes. In IMAGINE 2010.x, the tiff images open but with an error message: "spheroid is <null>.

43 1-7SXHL0 IMAGINE 2013.0.2 Re-projection from EPSG:28600 to EPSG:2932 is incorrect

Projections Problem occurs when reprojecting an image from Qatar projection EPSG:28600 to Qatar 95 projection EPSG:2932 in IMAGINE 2013.0.2. The resultant reprojected image is shifted.

44 1-7LEY7H Datum shift from International 1909/Ain elAbed 1970 Saudi Arabia occurs with translation to

Projections Exporting projection Geographic (Lat/Lon) - Spheroid International 1909/Ain el Abd 1970 (Saudi Arabia) to GeoTIFF translates to a different datum parameter Geographic (Lat/Lon) - Spheroid International 1924/Ain el Abd 1970 (Bahrain).


8


GeoTIFF The translation (using Subset) of the same projection to IMG is translated to Geographic (Lat/Lon) - Spheroid International 1924/Ain el Abd 1970 (Saudi Arabia), same datum as the input. IMG translation = Ain el Abd 1970 (Saudi Arabia) --> Ain el Abd 1970 (Saudi Arabia) TIFF translation = Ain el Abd 1970 (Saudi Arabia) --> Ain el Abd 1970 (Bahrain) The spheroid change of both translations from International 1909 to International 1924 is expected as International 1909 is deprecated and superseded by International 1924 . Problem is seen in IMAGINE 13.00.01.

45 1-7RVHIL Drag & drop image from Table of Contents into new viewer (viewer #2) doesn't work

Ribbon Interface

After loading multiple layer into Viewer #1 (as separate images) create new empty viewer #2 from TOC, drag and drop any selected layer into viewer #2 The selected image should be opened in viewer #2, but did not.

46 1-7RVHJ0 Drag & drop image from shoebox into new viewer (viewer #2) doesn't work

Ribbon Interface

After loading multiple layer into Shoebox (as separate images) open two empty viewers, viewer #1, and viewer #2 Drag & drop image from shoebox into viewer #2. Image should be opened in viewer #2, but did not.

47 1-7WX97O Recent files not showing up on Taskbar or Start Menu any more

Ribbon Interface

In 2010 and 2011 any files I used in the software which had File Associations to that software showed up in the Windows "Recent" lists of the ERDAS IMAGINE program on the Taskbar and Start Menus.

48 1-68UWX7 “Bicubic Spline” resample method is introduces noise in the output.

3D Geometric Models

When ortho rectifying WorldView-2 data using RPCs with the “Bicubic Spline” resample method, the output image has noise. However if any other resampling method is used no noise is seen even if the image looks little bit hazy,

49 1-7KK9TP Only elevation library can be chosen as a DTM source

3D Geometric Models

In ERDAS IMAGINE 2013, when doing ortho rectification the only possible DTM source that can be selected in the Camera Model Properties dialog is elevation library. In previous versions, we had the option of selection DTMs in IMG format also.

50 1-7LD9RJ Min/max elevation range in warptool is not correct

3D Geometric Models

In NITF RPC model properties window , the Min/Max elevation range is not properly read from NITF images that have this information

51 1-63M5NR Mosaicking a large number of JP2 files is failing.

MosaicPro Mosaic approx. 2000+ JP2 files, with output to JP2 format. In Process List, it shows 100% done without error. In 2D view, try to open the mosaic output file: “Raster file has no layers” error message pops-up. Checking the size of output file, it’s only 3K.

55 1-7QNQP9 Mosaic Process might crash if multiple output files are generated

MosaicPro Infrequent crash occurs when outputting multiple files.

56 1-7OUKD7 Command-line mosaicking with Map Series File for output area generates slightly different results.

MosaicPro The results of running the command-line are slightly different from those of running MosaicProcess from the workstation when using Map Series File as the output method

There is an x and y offset when comparing the 2 statistics.

Upper Left x: .02430525835 and Lower Right x: .02430525835 are offset by the same amount

Upper Left y: .0184900979 and Lower Right y: .0184900979 are offset by the same amount

57 1-7B3P57 Dodging parameters not being recalculated if exclusion areas is checked

MosaicPro Exclusion areas don’t have any effect on the mosaic result. The pixel values are exactly the same whether you exclude water areas or not. The problem appears if you stay in the same project, but just uncheck exclusion areas in color correction settings, dodging stats are not being recomputed hence the results are exactly the same.

59 1-1HSW-2500 NDVI in batch wizard does not work in some circumstances

Raster Analysis When adding more than one file and using Modify Commands Automatically the processes would not run. Running one image through the NDVI process works ok. The bug was spotted by comparing the generated command lines that are run from single and batch mode.

60 1-7T43SX Indices output to ECW gets errors message

Raster Analysis Run Indices from classification group. Input file: lanier.img Name an output file in ECW format. Click I/O Options, then check on ‘Stretch to Unsigned 8 bit’. Click ‘OK’ to run Indices. An error will pop-up. ECW v2 can write to unsigned 8-bit, and thus this should work.

61 1-7VLV4Q CADRG coverage attributes are truncated when exporting CADRG

RPF Production CADRG coverage attributes are truncated when exporting CADRG, resulting in corrupt or missing RPF data. Coverage attributes are optional and are used to define the map extent of the CADRG product. The map extent attributes are being truncated by removing the leading 0s from the actual extent. Example: 0.005112, 68.3371 is clipped to 0.5112, 68.3371. This is significant given that the attributes are stored in geographic coordinates.

62 1-7KZND3 Min/max elevation range is not correct

AutoSync In NITF RPC model properties window , the Min/Max elevation range is not properly read from NITF images that have this information

63 1-7IUCYO "Snap pixel edges to" shouldn't be available until its corresponding check box checked.

AutoSync In Geocorrection, the options for "Snap pixel edges to" should not be made available unless the check box for "Snap pixel edges to” is checked.

64 1-7J0CD2 The option for “Snap pixel edges to" set during project creation is not persisted.

AutoSync When creating an AutoSync project, check off the option for “Snap pixel edges to". After the project is created check the project properties. You will notice that the “Snap pixel edges to" option is checked on.

66 1-7QSI8T AutoSync checks IMAGINE Advantage license.

AutoSync AutoSync checks both IMAGINE AutoSync and IMAGINE Advantage license. The correct licensing action should be able to use AutoSync with just IMAGINE Essentials (and AutoSync) licensing if all you are using is the affine, polynomial or rubber sheet models. If you attempt to use RPC, Rigorous, DLT, etc., you will need an IMAGINE Advantage license as well.

67 1-62VU6B Unable to save AutoSync model after APM

AutoSync Saving a large AutoSync project after running APM fails with no memory message

68 1-88BH92 Hitting Cancel button in "Locate File" or "Verify File Name Change" dialogs would crash the app.

AutoSync Open a project file AutoSync that brings up the “Verify File Name Change" dialog and hit Cancel button in this dialog. Notice that AutoSync crashes. Similarly if cancel is hit from the "Locate File" dialog, a crash is observed.

69 1-7GAIBU Problem with ProbFilter (Objective, VOO)

Objective Load the objective project, and run the whole project, start from beginning RPP, end at VOO. Compare the probability from the result from only VOO. Probability should be the same, but the probability is different.

70 1-7OUKQC FLS Segmentation cannot be run in preview mode more than once (crashes Objective)

Objective 1. Start a new Objective Project 2. Add an image variable (e.g. 3 band RGB air photo) 3. Add SFP RPP and train on a quick "feature" 4. Add FLS Segmentation ROC 5. Start Here on the RPP, Stop Here on the ROC. 6. Turn on Preview, Execute once. Results look good. 7. Roam to another area Execute again. 8. Crash after the progress meter shows the Segmentation being complete. 9. Couldn't see a workaround other than to not do Preview.

73 1-645CBD Corners cut off from COSMO-SkyMed scene during ortho rectification

OrthoRadar OrthoRadar cuts off corners of COSMO-SkyMed scene during ortho rectifying. This problem also occurs when geo correcting the data, but not to the same extent. .

74 1-7LEOON Error "frame sampling" Classification The "frame sampling" tool in ERDAS IMAGINE shows an error when trying to save (or save as…) a project. It is impossible to use this tool.

75 1-7PBAZD Unsupervised Classification not using rrds when skip factor is set

Classification Unsupervised Classification should use rrds when the skip factor is set to >1. The current implementation is skipping pixels in the zero level data and not using the appropriate rrd level.

76 1-73CAY3 Group Classes using the Grouping Tool Workflow needs an extra step.

Classification Documentation Defect. Fuzzy Recode Prerequisites say: "You must manually reassign different Values to the different Target Class Values in the Class Grouping Tool before running the Fuzzy Recode process." You need to do this before the “Color Using Target Colors” section. If you don't, the Fuzzy Recode results are mostly a solid color. Add the step to assign unique values to the target class values somewhere earlier than the Color Using Target Colors section.

77 1-72XGYH Classification workflow: "Output Signature File" should be "Output File"

Classification Documentation Defect. In the Advanced Classification workflow section: In the Supervised Classification dialog, under Output Signature File, ..." it should state Output File, not Output Signature File

78 1-7XOOLD Converting Shapefile to signature file crashes IMAGINE

Classification When using the software for Signature Editor > Edit Signature > Read Shape, the program will crash if you use an attribute column where all of the names are the same name. If you use a column that has different names for each point, it converts the file with no problem.

79 1-7K2TCV Pixel alignment not correct in some cases in spatial modeler.

Spatial Modeler

Could not find a way to align to pixel edge.

80 1-7ULXYB Summary operator fails to produce correct results if (zone) vector extends

Spatial Modeler

The idea is to use ownership parcels as the Zones to look at how much change has occurred per parcel. So I use Summary and update a couple of attribute fields in the vector layer to show number of pixels of vegetation increase and number of pixels of vegetation decrease.

beyond raster This is a simple model - input vector, input raster, Summary operation. The attributes written to the polygons are incorrect (or more accurately, the correct attributes have been written to the incorrect polygons).

81 1-7F9HB5 Preview image from spatial model is incorrect. Output image is correct.

Spatial Modeler

A simple model which subtracts a value from all pixels in a raster image produces a preview image which is incorrect, while the actual output image from the model is correct. This model subtracts a value of 2000 from all pixel values in the raster image. The output image has a lot of areas with pixel values of zero, which is correct, but the preview image does not have these same areas of zeros, in fact it looks quite similar to the input image.

82 1-7GSGEZ Focal (Scan) function does not use IGNORE_VALUE and APPLY_AT_VALUE options for value -2147483648

Spatial Modeler

A model which performs a FOCAL MEAN function does not use the IGNORE_VALUE and APPLY_AT_VALUE options when the value is set to -2147483648. The input raster image is signed 32-bit data and contains pixels with the value -2147483648. The output raster file still contains these pixels even though the model’s function definition states that the focal mean should only be applied to pixels with these values (-2147483648) and that the value -2147483648 should be ignored in the focal mean calculation (i.e., only use the surrounding pixels in the calculation).

83 1-7I9HHK Double clicking on FileNameIn port when connected to RasterOut port will cause a crash

Spatial Modeler

In the "Raster Output" operator if we connect the FileNameIn port to a RasterOut port of another operator (eg., Raster Input) and then double click on FileNameIn port, eWkspace crashes. Even though this is not a valid workflow the software shouldn't crash.
