Overview
The image service includes multiple operations that support the renderingRule parameter. A rendering rule defines how the requested image will be rendered or processed. It consists of a raster function, associated arguments, output pixel type, and variable name. The raster function name identifies the processing or rendering to be performed, the associated arguments provide parameter name value pairs used by the processing, and the output pixel type defines the output image's pixel type. Among the raster function arguments, there is one or more arguments that take rasters as input. The variableName operation identifies the argument name that takes raster inputs. The following is the syntax for rendering rules:
{
"rasterFunction": "<rasterFunctionName>",
"rasterFunctionArguments": {
"argument1": <value1>,
"argument2": <value2>,
"argumentn": <valuen>
},
"outputPixelType": "<outputPixelType>", //new at 10.2, default is UNKNOWN. C128 | C64 | F32 | F64 | S16 | S32 | S8 | U1 | U16 | U2 | U32 | U4 | U8 | UNKNOWN
"variableName": "<variableName>" //optional for well known functions, default is "Raster" for raster function templates.
}
See the Use rasters in rendering rules section for more information on how to use raster inputs and variableName.

At 10.1 and later, a client can invoke a raster function template that is preconfigured on the server side along with the service. A raster function template defines a processing chain composed of one or more raster functions, including customized raster functions that are extended based on ArcObjects. Information about these raster function templates is available through the RasterFunctionInfos property in the Image Service topic. A client can omit rasterFunctionArguments and use the default configuration in the raster function template, or overwrite them by specifying argument parameters (argument names and value types are defined by the author of each raster function template and are not discoverable through REST).
ArcGIS supports numerous raster functions. Not all raster functions in ArcGIS are directly exposed as well-known functions, but they can be used in service-defined raster function templates. For more information, see Perform server-side processing with raster functions and What are the functions used by a raster or mosaic dataset.
At 10.2 and later, a client can define a raster function template by chaining multiple well-known raster functions and can also specify output pixel types; this does not apply to service-defined raster function templates.
This topic describes the well-known raster functions supported by the REST API, as well as raster function template syntax and examples: either service defined or client defined.
At 10.2.1, in addition to well-known functions, service-defined raster function templates can also be used in client-defined raster function templates.
At 10.3, service-defined raster function templates can group rasters using a designated attribute and resolve rasters using a tag. For example, a fish habitat suitability model may need multiple rasters from different variables, such as water temperature, salinity, and so on. The service publisher can define a raster function template that groups rasters by an attribute, for example, an attribute representing a particular slice in time and depth. Then it can resolve these rasters in a group using a tagged attribute, for example tag or variableName. The client can get this information from rasterFunctionInfos; the grouping and tagging are done on the server side, so the client can simply invoke the template.
At 10.5.1, Hillshade supports multidirectional and traditional hillshades.
At 10.9, all raster functions that support multiple multidimensional raster inputs also support the following two multidimensional arguments:
- MatchVariable—When this argument is set to true, the raster function will only proceed if the variables in the two or more input multidimensional rasters have the same name. This is the default. When it is set to false, the input multidimensional rasters can have variables with different names.
- UnionDimension—When this argument is set to true, the raster function will only proceed if the dimensions in the two or more input multidimensional rasters have the same name. This is the default. When it is set to false, the dimensions do not have to have matching names, and the result will be the union of the dimensions. For example, if you add two multidimensional rasters that both have an ocean temperature variable named "temp", but one measure along dimension Time and one measure along dimension Depth, the result will be a multidimensional raster with both Time and Depth dimensions in which the temperature variable has been added together for each combination of dimensions.
"rasterFunction": "ArgStatistics"
Introduced at 10.3, the ArgStatistics function produces an output with a pixel value that represents a statistical metric from all bands of input rasters. The statistics can be the band index of the maximum, minimum, or median value, or the duration (number of bands) between a minimum and maximum value. For more information, see ArgStatistics function.
The arguments for the ArgStatistics function are as follows:
{
"rasterFunction": "ArgStatistics",
"rasterFunctionArguments": {
"ArgStatisticsType": <ArgStatisticsType>, //int 0=maximum, 1= minimum, 2=median, 3=duration

Introduced at 10.6, the Colormap function transforms the pixel values to display the raster data as a red, green, blue (RGB) color image, based on specific colors in a color map or a color range defined in a color ramp. For more information, see Colormap function. You can display raster data using a predefined ColorrampName or a customized Colorramp object. Several ArcGIS predefined color ramps are provided.
Predefined color ramp graphics and their corresponding names can be viewed from the layer's properties windowon the Symbology tab. The particular color ramp or scheme name is specified in the ColorrampName argument object. For more information about color ramp objects, see Color ramp objects.

"rasterFunction": "ColormapToRGB"
Introduced at 10.6, the ColormapToRGB function works with single band image service that has an internal color map. It converts the image to a three-band 8-bit RGB raster. This function takes no arguments except an input raster. For a qualified image service, there are two situations when the ColormapToRGB function is automatically applied: The colormapToRGB property of the image service is set to true, or the client requests to export the image to JPG or PNG format. For more information, see Colormap To RGB function.
Nota:
At 10.6.1, the UnmappedAsRandomColor parameter was added with false as the default value . If this parameter is set to true and colormap doesn’t specify how a raster pixel value will be mapped into RGB values, it will assign a random RGB color to the pixel.
The arguments for the ColormapToRGB function are as follows:
{
"rasterFunction": "ColormapToRGB",
"rasterFunctionArguments": {
"Raster": <raster>, //optional, default is the image service
"UnmappedAsRandomColor": <true|false>, //new at 10.6.1, boolean, optional, default is false

"rasterFunction": " ColorspaceConversion"
Introduced at 10.6, the ColorspaceConversion function converts the color model of a three-band unsigned 8-bit image from hue, saturation, and value (HSV) to red, green, and blue (RGB) or vice versa. The ExtractBand function or Stretch function are sometimes used for converting the imagery into valid input for the ColorspaceConversion function. For more information, see Color Model Conversion function.
The arguments for the ColorspaceConversion function are as follows:
{
"rasterFunction": "ColorspaceConversion",

}
"rasterFunction": "ComputeChange"
Introduced at 10.8.1, the ComputeChange function computes changes between two rasters. For more information, see Compute Change function.

Nota:
This function will only work if the service provider is arcobjects11 or arcobjectsrasterrendering.
The arguments for the ComputeChange function are as follows:
{
"rasterFunction": "ComputeChange",
"rasterFunctionArguments": {
"Raster": <Raster>, //the input raster

{
"rasterFunction": "Resample",
"rasterFunctionArguments": {
"ResamplingType": <ResamplingType>, //0=NearestNeighbor, 1=Bilinear, 2=Cubic, 3=Majority, 4=BilinearInterpolationPlus, 5=BilinearGaussBlur, 6=BilinearGaussBlurPlus, 7=Average, 8=Minimum, 9=Maximum, 10=VectorAverage (require two bands)

"rasterFunction": "TasseledCap"
Introduced at 10.6, the TasseledCap function analyzes and maps vegetation and urban development changes detected by various satellite sensor systems. It is known as the Tasseled Cap transformation due to the shape of the graphical distribution of data. This function takes no arguments except a raster. The input for this function is the source raster of an image service. There are no other parameters for this function because all the information is derived from the input's properties and key metadata (bands, data type, and sensor name).

The TransposeBits function performs a bit operation. It extracts bit values from the source data and assigns them to new bits in the output data. For more information, see Transpose Bits function.
The arguments for the TransposeBits function are as follows:
{
"rasterFunction": "TransposeBits",
"rasterFunctionArguments": {
"InputBitPositions": <InputBitPositions>, //array of long, required
"OutputBitPositions": <DirectionBandID>, //array of long, required
"ConstantFillCheck": <true | false>, //bool, optional
"ConstantFillValue": <ConstantFillValue>, //int, required
"Raster": <Raster>, //optional, the input raster to be transposed, default is the service "$$"
"FillRaster": <size> //optional, the fill raster
},
"outputPixelType": "<outputPixelType>" //optional
}
If ConstantFillCheck is false, it is assumed there is an input FillRaster value. If an input FillRaster value is not provided, ConstantFillCheck reverts to true and checks for a ConstantFillValue value. Filling is used to initialize pixel values of the output raster.

Use a raster function template defined by the service
The name of the raster function template is displayed in the image service root resource. Function arguments are optional; argument names and default values are created by the author of the raster function template and are not known through REST. A client can provide the name of the raster function template only to the RasterFunction property or, optionally, provide arguments to overwrite the default values.
For more information about authoring server-side raster function templates, see Server-side processing with raster functions.
{
"rasterFunction": "rasterFunctionTemplateName",
"rasterFunctionArguments": {
"ArgumentName1": <>, //overwrite default value of ArgumentName1, type and default value are defined by the author of the template
"ArgumentName2": <>, //overwrite default value of ArgumentName2, type and default value are defined by the author of the template
...
},
"variableName": "<>" //variableName can be other than "Raster", as defined by the author of the template
}
Example
The following service has raster function templates defined:
https://sampleserver6.arcgisonline.com/arcgis/rest/services/CharlotteLAS/ImageServer?f=pjson
The root resource shows the supported raster function templates.
"rasterFunctionInfos": [
{

"description": "A raster function template.",
"help": "This raster function template uses a shaded relief function. The default values of ZFactor is 1, Altitude is 45, and Azimuth is 315. An elevation colorramp is used."

A client can use this function with default function arguments.
{
"rasterFunction": "RFTShadedReliefElevationColorRamp"
}
https://sampleserver6.arcgisonline.com/arcgis/rest/services/CharlotteLAS/ImageServer/exportImage?bbox=1440000.0,535000.0,1455000.0,550000.0&bboxSR=&size=400,400&imageSR=&format=jpgpng&pixelType=UNKNOWN&noData=&interpolation=RSP_BilinearInterpolation&mosaicRule=&renderingRule={"rasterFunction" : "RFTShadedReliefElevationColorRamp"}&f=image
A client can also provide optional parameter values.
{
"rasterFunction": "RFTShadedReliefElevationColorRamp",
"rasterFunctionArguments": {
"ZFactor": 10
},
"variableName": "Raster"
}
https://sampleserver6.arcgisonline.com/arcgis/rest/services/CharlotteLAS/ImageServer/exportImage?bbox=1440000.0,535000.0,1455000.0,550000.0&bboxSR=&size=400,400&imageSR=&format=jpgpng&pixelType=UNKNOWN&noData=&interpolation=RSP_BilinearInterpolation&mosaicRule=&renderingRule={"rasterFunction" : "RFTShadedReliefElevationColorRamp","rasterFunctionArguments":{"ZFactor":10},"variableName":"Raster"}&f=image
Turn off a default raster function template
By default, the image service exportImage operation applies the first raster function template in rasterFunctionInfos. You can change the rendering rule using the renderingRule parameter, or apply no additional processing using the following rendering rule:
{
"rasterFunction": "None",
}
The following service has a Stretch function template applied by default (TorontoStretch):
It can be turned off by specifying None as the raster function.
When a single-band image service has a raster attribute table and RGB colors are available in the attribute table, exportImage automatically uses it to render an image service by default, for example (NLCDLandCover2001):
It can be turned off the same way:
If the first raster function template is None, it means, by default, no raster function template is used. The image service can use a default renderer if needed (for example, the previous NLCDLandCover2001 example).
Define a raster function template on the client side
This was added at 10.2. A client can define a raster function template by assigning a well-known raster function object as the value of a raster function argument. The argument must take a raster as input, for example, Raster, DEM.
{
"rasterFunction": "<rasterFunctionName>",
"rasterFunctionArguments": {
"argument1": <value1>,
"argument2": <value2>,
"argumentn": <valuen>,
"Raster": { //this is the argument that takes raster inputs, e.g. DEM for the Hillshade function
"rasterFunction": "<rasterFunctionName>",
"rasterFunctionArguments": {
"argument1": <value1>,
"argument2": <value2>,
"argumentn": <valuen>
},
"outputPixelType": "<outputPixelType>",
"variableName": "<variableName>" //the inner function's variableName
}
},
"outputPixelType": "<outputPixelType>"
}
Example
This example demonstrates red and blue color mapping for a temperature image service (above or below 0° C).
{
"rasterFunction": "Colormap",
"rasterFunctionArguments": {
"Colormap": [
[0, 255, 0, 0],
[2, 0, 0, 255]
],
"Raster": {
"rasterFunction": "Remap",
"rasterFunctionArguments": {
"InputRanges": [-50.0,0,0,50],
"OutputValues": [0,2],
"Raster": "$$"
},
"outputPixelType": "U8"
}
},
"outputPixelType": "U8"
}
Use rasters in rendering rules
The variableName value of a rendering rule designates which argument has a type of raster or rasters. It's optional for the following cases:
- Well-known functions—The image service can find them based on the raster function name.
- Service-defined raster function templates that use Raster or Rasters as the variableName.
Among the raster function arguments, there's one or more arguments that take a raster or an array of rasters as input, for example, the Raster argument for the Remap function and the DEM argument for the Hillshade function. A raster value can be the image service ("$$") default, an image in the image service ("$oid"), or a result from another function (a rendering rule object). The argument name value pair can be optional in the following cases, and when not provided, the default is the image service ("Raster":"$$"):
- Well-known functions—Functions that use Raster or DEM as the argument name.
- Service-defined raster function templates if the argument name is Raster; otherwise, it must be provided.
You can reference an image in an image service or the result from another function. When using an individual raster in an image service as input, the raster argument must be part of rasterFunctionArguments. The value of this argument is a dollar-objectID notation of the raster, for example, "Raster":"$1". When using the image service as input, you can also use "$$" to represent the image service as part of rasterFunctionArguments (for example, "Raster":"$$").
