Oct 26, 2011 at 13:29 comment added GeorgeC hi whuber -the use is in fire hazard analysis where different aspects/slopes and vegetation zones get a risk score and then these are simply added so that we end up with low, med, high fire hazard zones across the area. The issue is that we want to use the highest possible resolution but don't have it for the whole area.

Oct 25, 2011 at 4:46 comment added whuber For a raster calculation, George, you can either resample to a common cellsize (such as 1m) or process the different patches separately. It deserves some thought, because a slope or aspect computed at 30m resolution is not exactly comparable to one computed at 1m resolution. It's hard to give general advice in the absence of information about the purpose of this calculation.
Oct 24, 2011 at 23:30 comment added GeorgeC Thanks guys...doesn't a FGDB have a 1TB limit? I am just using 15GB max. The issue with a raster based model is that the whole region is represented by 30m DEM, the Eastern part by 10m DEM and portions of this by 1m DEM. So wouldn't Raster calculator work on the worst case scenario pixels (30m)?
Oct 24, 2011 at 23:05 comment added blah238 @Mapperz, it depends on the File System. FAT is limited to 2GB, FAT32 is 4GB and NTFS is unlimited according to: microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/…

Oct 24, 2011 at 18:11 comment added Kirk Kuykendall Do you have slope and aspect rasters ? If so, do you have spatial analyst?

Oct 24, 2011 at 14:47 comment added RyanKDalton An important piece of info from the link Mapperz sent: "Enterprise and file geodatabases do not have this limitation so they are recommended as the output workspace when using very large datasets."
Oct 24, 2011 at 14:24 comment added Mapperz The file size limit for the Windows operating system is 2 GB. (3GB with /3GB on XP). Try the SPILT tool in ArcGIS with Large Datasets 'Tiling' resources.esri.com/help/9.3/arcgisdesktop/com/gp_toolref/…
