Parameter Explanation
Layers_to_Clip

The layers to be clipped. Layers must be feature or raster layers in the map's table of contents. Layer files do not work for this parameter.

Area_of_Interest

One or more polygons by which the layers will be clipped.

Feature_Format

The format in which the output features will be delivered. The string provided should be formatted as follows:

  • Name or format - Short Name - extension (if any)

The hyphen between the components is required, as well as the spaces around the hyphen.

For example:

  • File Geodatabase - GDB - .gdb
  • Shapefile - SHP - .shp
  • Autodesk AutoCAD - DXF_R2007 - .dxf
  • Autodesk AutoCAD - DWG_R2007 - .dwg
  • Bentley Microstation Design (V8) - DGN_V8 - .dgn

Internally, this tool uses the Export to CAD tool to convert data to the .dgn, .dwg, and .dxf CAD formats. The list of short names supported includes DGN_V8, DWG_R14, DWG_R2000, DWG_R2004, DWG_R2005, DWG_R2007, DWG_R2010, DXF_R14, DXF_R2000, DXF_R2004, DXF_R2005, DXF_R2007, and DXF_R2010.

Raster_Format

The format in which the output raster datasets will be delivered. The string provided should be formatted as follows:

  • Name of format - Short Name - extension (if any)

Any of the following strings will work:

  • Esri GRID - GRID
  • File Geodatabase - GDB - .gdb
  • ERDAS IMAGINE - IMG - .img
  • Tagged Image File Format - TIFF - .tif
  • Portable Network Graphics - PNG - .png
  • Graphic Interchange Format - GIF - .gif
  • Joint Photographics Experts Group - JPEG - .jpg
  • Joint Photographics Experts Group - JPEG - .jp2
  • Bitmap - BMP - .bmp

Some of the above raster formats have limitations and not all data can be converted to the format. For a list of formats and their limitations, see the help topic "Supported raster dataset file formats".

Output_Zip_File

The zip file that will contain the extracted data.
