Last Published: April 26, 2020

Summary

Instructions provided describe how to align the cells of an output raster with the cells of another raster using the Clip tool.

To align cells of the output raster from the Clip tool with another raster, set this other raster as the snap raster in Environment settings. Additionally, set the projection and the cell size of the output raster the same as the snap raster.

Procedure

Set the snap raster, the output coordinate system, and the cell size in the Clip tool's Environment Settings.

  1. Open the Clip tool. On the Geoprocessing menu, click Clip.
  2. In the Clip tool dialog box, click the Environments button.
  3. In the Environments Settings dialog box, under Processing Extent, set the alignment raster as the Snap Raster.
