Another, more ad hoc, approach is to import one or more existing raster datasets directly into the geodatabase. Import
assigns the properties of the output raster dataset using the properties of the input rasters, rather than allowing you
to dene them. There are two options for importing rasters. Both are accessed by right-clicking the geodatabase and
clicking Import. If you want to mosaic several adjacent rasters into a single dataset, choose Raster Datasets (mosaic).
As with loading multiple datasets (described above), you can specify how to handle overlaps, assign no data values,
and so on.

A raster catalog lets you manage a group of individual rasters as a collection. The rasters could be a tiled imagesuch
as all aerial photos for a countythat you want to maintain as separate tiles (rather than mosaicking them into a single
dataset); a set of coincident rasters for a location (such as layers for soil type, elevation, rainfall, and so on); a time
series for a location (such as urban versus rural landuse for each decade); or any other collection of rasters you want to
keep together, such as all the output rasters from a GIS analysis project.
You rst create and dene the raster catalog. Right-click a geodatabase, point to New, and click Raster Catalog.
