   Spatial Analyst toolbox

A significant number of Spatial Analyst tools are found in ArcToolbox.  ArcToolbox is activated by clicking on the toolbox icon arctoolbox icon.  It will come up in a separate window, typically docked in ArcGIS.  It will show tools, which are the actual tools you use for geoprocessing.  Tools are organized into categories called toolsets, and those are collected into toolboxes.


The Spatial Analyst toolbox, installed only with Spatial Analyst, has a number of tools for raster processing, only a few of which we will cover in this class.  For more information on Spatial Analyst tools, see the ArcGIS Desktop Help or the ArcGIS Spatial Analyst tutorial.
