Summary
Defines the group of input rasters and attributes to include in a collection that will be used for processing.
Discussion
The RasterCollection object allows a group of rasters to be sorted and filtered, and prepares a collection for additional processing and analysis.
The RasterCollection object includes the max, min, median, mean, majority, and sum methods for calculating statistics for each pixel across matching bands within the collection's rasters.
For example, the sum method adds the pixel values from Band 1 in raster item 1 to the pixel values in Band 1 of raster item 2, and returns a Raster object in which Band 1 contains those summed values.
Syntax
RasterCollection (rasters, {attribute_dict})
Parameter | Explanation | Data Type |
rasters [rasters,...] | The input raster datasets. Supported inputs include a list of rasters, a mosaic dataset, a multidimensional raster in Cloud Raster Format, a NetCDF file, or an image service. If you're using a list of raster datasets, all rasters must have the same cell size and spatial reference. | List |
attribute_dict | A Python dictionary that contains attribute information to be added to each raster, when the input is a list of rasters. For each key-value pair, the key is the attribute name and the value is a list of values that represent the attribute value for each raster. For example, to add a name field to a list of three rasters, use {"name": ["Landsat8_Jan", "Landsat8_Feb", "Landsat8_Mar"]}. (The default value is None) | Dictionary |
Properties

Method Overview
Method | Explanation |
addField (field_name, field_values) | Adds a new field to the raster collection and populates it with values. |
filter ({where_clause}, {query_geometry_or_extent}) | Filters the collection of raster items by attributes or geometry and returns a raster collection containing only the items that satisfy the filter. If no arguments are provided, all raster items from the raster collection will be returned in a new raster collection. |
filterByAttribute (field_name, operator, field_values) | Filters the collection of raster items by an attribute query and returns a raster collection containing only the items that satisfy the query. To query the raster collection based on a time field, use the filterByTime method. |
filterByCalendarRange (calendar_field, start, {end}, time_field_name, date_time_format) | Filters the collection of raster items based on the range of a calendar field and returns a raster collection containing only the items that satisfy the filter. If no arguments are provided, all raster items from the raster collection will be returned in a new raster collection. |
filterByGeometry (query_geometry_or_extent) | Filters the collection of raster items so that only those that intersect with the geometry will be returned. |
filterByRasterProperty (property_name, operator, property_values) | Filters the collection of raster items by a raster property query and returns a raster collection containing only the items that satisfy the query. |

getFieldValues (field_name, {max_count}) | Returns the values of a specified field from the raster collection. |
groupBy (field_name) | Groups a raster collection based on a field. Each grouped raster collection can be accessed by the field value. |
majority ({ignore_nodata}, {extent_type}, {cellsize_type}) | Returns a raster object in which each band contains the pixel value that occurs most frequently for that band across all rasters in the raster collection. For example, if there are 10 raster items in the raster collection, each with four bands, the majority method will determine the pixel value that occurs most frequently across all raster items for band 1, for band 2, for band 3, and for band 4; a four-band raster is returned. Band numbers are matched between raster items using the band index, so the items in the raster collection must follow the same band order. |
map (func) | Maps a Python function over a raster collection. |
max ({ignore_nodata}, extent_type, cellsize_type) | Returns a raster object in which each band contains the maximum pixel values for that band across all rasters in the raster collection.

Band numbers are matched between raster items using the band index, so the items in the raster collection must follow the same band order. |
mean ({ignore_nodata}, {extent_type}, {cellsize_type}) | Returns a raster object in which each band contains the average pixel values for that band across all rasters in the raster collection. For example, if there are 10 raster items in the raster collection, each with four bands, the mean method will calculate the mean pixel value that occurs across all raster items for band 1, band 2, band 3, and band 4; a four-band raster is returned. Band numbers are matched between raster items using the band index, so the items in the raster collection must follow the same band order. |
median ({ignore_nodata}, {extent_type}, {cellsize_type}) | Returns a raster object in which each band contains the median pixel values for that band across all rasters in the raster collection. For example, if there are 10 raster items in the raster collection, each with four bands, the median method will calculate the median pixel value that occurs across all raster items for band 1, band 2, band 3, and band 4; a four-band raster is returned. Band numbers are matched between raster items using the band index, so the items in the raster collection must follow the same band order. |

For example, if there are ten raster items in the raster collection, each with four bands, the Min method can be specified as the reducer function. This will return a four-band raster, with each band containing the minimum values across all ten rasters. |
selectBands (band_ids_or_names) | Selects a list of bands from every raster item in a raster collection and returns a raster collection that contains raster items with only the selected bands. |
sort (field_name, {ascending}) | Sorts the collection of rasters by a field name and returns a raster collection that is in the order specified. |
std ({ignore_nodata}, {extent_type}, {cellsize_type}) | Returns a raster object in which each band contains the standard deviation pixel values for that band across all rasters in the raster collection. For example, if there are 10 raster items in the raster collection, each with four bands, the std method will calculate the standard deviation pixel value that occurs across all raster items for bands 1, 2, 3, and 4; a four-band raster is returned. Band numbers are matched between raster items using the band index, so the items in the raster collection must follow the same band order. |
sum ({ignore_nodata}, {extent_type}, {cellsize_type}) | Returns a raster object in which each band contains the sum of pixel values for that band across all rasters in the raster collection. For example, if there are 10 raster items in the raster collection, each with four bands, the sum method will calculate the sum of pixel values for each pixel that occurs across all raster items for band 1, band 2, band 3, and band 4; a four-band raster is returned.
