Overview
This topic discusses the JSON representation of raster function objects, as well as raster function template syntax and examples.
The image service includes multiple operations that support the renderingRule parameter. A rendering rule defines how the requested image will be rendered or processed. It consists of a raster function, associated arguments, output pixel type, and variable name. The raster function name identifies the processing or rendering to be performed, the associated arguments provide parameter name value pairs used by the processing, and the output pixel type defines the output image's pixel type. Among the raster function arguments, there is one or more arguments that take rasters as input. The variableName operation identifies the argument name that takes raster inputs.
The image service includes a few well-known raster functions that do not need to be preconfigured with the service.
These well-known functions include the following, organized alphabetically:

Use a raster function template defined by the service
A raster function template defines a processing chain composed of one or more raster functions, including customized raster functions that are extended based on ArcObjects. Information about these raster function templates is available through the Raster
property in the Image Service topic. A client can omit raster
and use the default configuration in the raster function template, or overwrite them by specifying argument parameters.
The name of the raster function template is displayed in the image service root resource. Function arguments are optional; argument names and default values are created by the author of the raster function template and are not known through REST. A client can provide the name of the raster function template only to the Raster
property or, optionally, provide arguments to overwrite the default values.
Service-defined raster function templates can group rasters using a designated attribute and resolve rasters using a tag. For example, a fish habitat suitability model may need multiple rasters from different variables, such as water temperature, salinity, and so on. The service publisher can define a raster function template that groups rasters by an attribute, for example, an attribute representing a particular slice in time and depth. Then it can resolve these rasters in a group using a tagged attribute, for example tag
or variable
. The client can get this information from raster
; the grouping and tagging are done on the server side, so the client can simply invoke the template.
For more information about authoring server-side raster function templates, see Server-side processing with raster functions.
{
"rasterFunction": "rasterFunctionTemplateName",
"rasterFunctionArguments": {
"ArgumentName1": <>, //overwrite default value of ArgumentName1, type and default value are defined by the author of the template

...
},
"variableName": "<>" //variableName can be other than "Raster", as defined by the author of the template
}
The following service has raster function templates defined:
https://sampleserver6.arcgisonline.com/arcgis/rest/services/CharlotteLAS/ImageServer?f=pjson
This resource returns the following information for the supported raster function templates:
"rasterFunctionInfos": [

"name": "None",
"description": "A No-Op Function.",
"help": ""
},
{
"name": "RFTAspectColor",

"description": "A raster function template.",
"help": "This raster function template uses a shaded relief function. The default values of ZFactor is 1, Altitude is 45, and Azimuth is 315. An elevation colorramp is used."
}
]
A client can use the use the supported raster functions with their default arguments, without additional properties included:
https://sampleserver6.arcgisonline.com/arcgis/rest/services/CharlotteLAS/ImageServer/exportImage?bbox=1440000.0,535000.0,1455000.0,550000.0&bboxSR=&size=400,400&imageSR=&format=jpgpng&pixelType=UNKNOWN&noData=&interpolation=RSP_BilinearInterpolation&mosaicRule=&renderingRule={"rasterFunction": "RFTShadedReliefElevationColorRamp"}&f=image
A client can also use the supported raster functions with optional properties:
https://sampleserver6.arcgisonline.com/arcgis/rest/services/CharlotteLAS/ImageServer/exportImage?bbox=1440000.0,535000.0,1455000.0,550000.0&bboxSR=&size=400,400&imageSR=&format=jpgpng&pixelType=UNKNOWN&noData=&interpolation=RSP_BilinearInterpolation&mosaicRule=&renderingRule={"rasterFunction": "RFTShadedReliefElevationColorRamp","rasterFunctionArguments":{"ZFactor":10},"variableName":"Raster"}&f=image
Turn off a default raster function template
By default, the Export Image operation applies the first raster function template in raster
. You can change the rendering rule using the rendering
parameter, or apply no additional processing by setting raster
as None
. If the first raster function template is None, it means, by default, no raster function template is used. The image service can use a default renderer if needed.
The following service (Toronto) has a Stretch
function template applied by default:
The Toronto service can have disable additional processing by specifying None
as the raster function:
When a single-band image service has a raster attribute table and RGB colors are available in the attribute table, Export Image automatically uses it to render an image service by default:
This behavior can be turned off in the same way by specifying None
as the raster function:
Define a raster function template on the client side
A client can define a raster function template in the following ways:
- by assigning a well-known raster function object as the value of a raster function argument. The argument must take a raster as input, for example specifying either
Raster
orDEM
. - by chaining multiple well-known raster functions and specifying output pixel types; this does not apply to service-defined raster function templates.
In addition to well-known functions, service-defined raster function templates can also be used in client-defined raster function templates.
{
"rasterFunction": "<rasterFunctionName>",
"rasterFunctionArguments": {
"argument1": <value1>,
"argument2": <value2>,
"argumentn": <valuen>,
"Raster": { //this is the argument that takes raster inputs, e.g. DEM for the Hillshade function
"rasterFunction": "<rasterFunctionName>",
"rasterFunctionArguments": {
"argument1": <value1>,
"argument2": <value2>,
"argumentn": <valuen>
},
"outputPixelType": "<outputPixelType>",
"variableName": "<variableName>" //the inner function's variableName
}
},
"outputPixelType": "<outputPixelType>"
}
Use rasters in rendering rules
The variable
value of a rendering rule designates which argument has a type of raster or rasters. It's optional for the following cases:
- Well-known functions—The image service can find them based on the raster function name.
- Service-defined raster function templates that use
Raster
orRasters
as thevariable
.Name
Among the raster function arguments, there's one or more arguments that take a raster or an array of rasters as input, for example, the Raster
argument for the Remap function and the DEM
argument for the Hillshade
function. A raster value can be the image service ($$
) default, an image in the image service ($oid
), or a result from another function (a rendering rule object). The argument name value pair can be optional in the following cases, and when not provided, the default is the image service ("
):
- Well-known functions—Functions that use
Raster
orDEM
as the argument name. - Service-defined raster function templates if the argument name is
Raster
; otherwise, it must be provided.
You can reference an image in an image service or the result from another function. When using an individual raster in an image service as input, the Raster
argument must be part of raster
. The value of this argument is a dollar-objectID notation of the raster, for example, "
. When using the image service as input, you can also use $$
to represent the image service as part of rasterFunctionArguments (for example, "
).
This example demonstrates stretching the first raster.
{
"rasterFunction": "Stretch",
"rasterFunctionArguments": {
"StretchType": 3,
"NumberOfStandardDeviations": 2.5,
"Statistics": [
[0, 255, 56.7, 54.8],
[0, 255, 97.5, 94.5],
[0, 255, 87.5, 87.3]
],
"Gamma": [1.25, 1.25, 1.25],
"Raster": "$1"
},
"outputPixelType": "U8"
}
Multidimensional raster inputs
All raster functions that support multiple multidimensional raster inputs also support the following two multidimensional arguments:
Match
—When this argument is set toVariable true
, the raster function will only proceed if the variables in the two or more input multidimensional rasters have the same name. This is the default. When it is set tofalse
, the input multidimensional rasters can have variables with different names.Union
—When this argument is set toDimension true
, the raster function will only proceed if the dimensions in the two or more input multidimensional rasters have the same name. This is the default. When it is set tofalse
, the dimensions do not have to have matching names, and the result will be the union of the dimensions. For example, if you add two multidimensional rasters that both have an ocean temperature variable named "temp", but one measure along dimension Time and one measure along dimension Depth, the result will be a multidimensional raster with both Time and Depth dimensions in which the temperature variable has been added together for each combination of dimensions.

property of the image service is set to true
, or the client requests to export the image to JPG or PNG format. For more information, see Colormap To RGB function.
The Unmapped

The NDVI
function detects relative biomass (greenness) in a raster image. For more information, see NDVI function.
The following equation is used by the NDVI

TasseledCap
The Tasseled
function analyzes and maps vegetation and urban development changes detected by various satellite sensor systems. It is known as the Tasseled Cap transformation due to the shape of the graphical distribution of data. This function takes no arguments except a raster. The input for this function is the source raster of an image service. There are no other parameters for this function because all the information is derived from the input's properties and key metadata (bands, data type, and sensor name). Only imagery from the Landsat MSS, Landsat TM, Landsat ETM+, IKONOS, QuickBird, WorldView-2, and RapidEye sensors are supported. Before applying this function, confirm that there are no functions in the function chain that would alter the pixel values, such as the Stretch
, Apparent Reflectance
, or Pansharpening
functions. The only exception is when using Landsat ETM+: the Apparent Reflectance
function must precede the Tasseled

VectorField
The Vector
function composites and converts two single-band rasters (each raster represents U/V or Magnitude/Direction) into a two-band raster (each band represents U/V or Magnitude/Direction). The data combination type (U-V or Magnitude-Direction) can also be converted interchangeably with this function. For more information, see Vector Field function.
