Dear Lucia,

 

Thanks for your interest with MGET. I can help with your questions.

 

Regarding the patch cover raster and general advice, please see this post. I discussed a lot of the details there. Let me know if you have any other questions about that.

 

Regarding the error you encountered: Does that problem reproduce if you restart ArcGIS? If so, can you please send me the complete output of the tool, so I can see what came before it, including all of the tool parameters?

 

Looking at what you did send, my guess is that the tool cannot find reef_ids.img. It is odd that this raster does not have a path in front of it. Did you run the tool from ArcMap and select reef_ids.img from the dropdown menu in the tool? If so, this might be the problem. Although this is supposed to work, sometimes it does not for reasons I do not understand. When you use the dropdown, ArcGIS passes the layer name to the MGET tool rather than path to the raster. MGET passed it to ArcGIS’s own Copy Raster tool, which failed. Perhaps Copy Raster did not recognize that reef_ids.img is a Raster Layer rather than a path to a raster (which would be interpreted as a Raster Dataset).

 

If that is what is happening, you can work around it by not clicking the dropdown and selecting the raster layer. Instead, click the folder icon and navigate the file system to the raster. This should cause it to send the full path to MGET, which it can pass on to Copy Raster.

 

All the best,

 

Jason

Hello again dear Nicholas, 

 

I've been trying to run the model with the Gulf of Mexico data and I'm getting this message error just from the begging when creating the simulation. 

 

ERROR 999999: Error executing function.

Failed to copy raster dataset

Failed to execute (CopyRaster).

ArcGISError: The ArcGIS CopyRaster_management geoprocessing tool failed when given the parameters (*args=('reef_ids.img', 'C:\\Users\\ACER\\Desktop\\Oceanography project\\redSea\\bligd\\PatchData\\patch_ids')) and reported ExecuteError: ERROR 999999: Error executing function.

Failed to copy raster dataset

Failed to execute (CopyRaster).

Failed script LarvalDispersalCreateSimulationFromArcGISRasters...

 

Maybe you can help me, I don't know which step I'm missing. 

 

Thanks in advance

Dear Nicholas Duke,

 

I'm writing you because I found the modeling tool for larval dispersion and I'm very interested in using it for a research project related to oceanographic currents in the south of the red sea.  I'm a master student in KAUST (King Abdullah University of Science and Technology) in the Red Sea Research Center. 

 

I already created the water mask and the patches ID raster, however, I'm a little bit confused about how should I create the patch cover raster. I'm, wondering if you could help me with this and giving me some advice about the general model. 

 

Thank you in advance.
