I received some bathymetry data in .xyz format and am trying to figure out how to convert it to a DEM or raster of some sort. I need to generate some bathymetry profile graphs for a client. When I opened the text file to view the data, it is just one field with x,y,z data all together. The x,y data is in State Plane and the Z data is in NAVD88. The file is rather large (13.2mb) and when I tried to copy and paste the data into Excel to try and separate the data into separate fields, I received an error that not all of the data was copied (which I assume is because the file is too large?) Can anyone let me know how to convert this file into a raster? ... View more

I have a collection or MrSid rasters that I am trying to mosaic into one raster. I have tried to use both the Mosaic and Mosaic to New Raster tools with no luck. When I use the Mosaic, I create a .gdb and create a new raster dataset, then load the collection of rasters but I continue to get errors (Error exectuing function. Failed to open raster dataset. Failed to execute (mosaic)). When I use the Mosaic to New Raster tool, I load all the rasters...choose my output location...name with extension (trying to create a .tif)...choose number of bands (3-which matches the numbers of bands on all the rasters I am trying to mosaic) and I still get the same errors. I have tried to also use the Raster to Other Format tool....and again....I load the rasters, choose the output workspace and raster format....and fail! Does anyone know how I can either 1) successfully mosaic all of my MrSid rasters into one .tif or even one .sid file or 2) convert all of the MrSid rasters into tiffs? I would greatly appreciate any ideas on this, it has had me scratching my head for two days now. I have successfully mosaic-ed other tiffs into one big .tif, however, for some reason I think the MrSid format is causing some issue?! Thanks, Josh C. ... View more

I am trying to understand exactly how the new coordinate widget works in Flex Viewer 2.2 (uncompiled).... I currently have all my services projected in state plane, however, I would like for the coordinates in my flex map to appear as latitude and longitude (degrees). How can I do this? Can I set one of the layers to WGS1984 and then it would work? Also, I think it will help to clarify how I have my application configured. I have my <basemaps> that comes from ESRI basemaps and was originally projected as WGS1984, I then re-projected to state plane (to match all of my data and services that are projected in state plane), defined my extent to the county I am working with, and then saved that mxd to use as my <basemaps> layer. All of my <operationallayers> are in state plane. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Josh C. ... View more

Can anyone explain why it is that I cannot view my application outside of the local intranet? I have some flex apps that are setup on a local public server with several apps on it. All of the .NET apps can be viewed outside the intranet and the data all appears fine. When I try going to one of the Flex apps from outside the intranet, I am able to see the UI and all of the widgets open fine, however, none of the map and data are displayed?! Does anyone know why this is? Also, if anyone can look at my other post "Problem deploying Flexviewer app" I could really use some input on this as well. I can not figure out why my app appears sometimes and other times....it is just a white screen and I have to hit refresh a lot of times and then it will randomly sometimes work?! Thanks for any input anyone can give, I would really appreciate it! Josh C. ... View more
