Histogram Statistics
The Histogram Statistics tool generates a set of statistics
based on a histogram tool.
Using the Histogram Statistics Tool
Drag
a histogram tool onto the inputs
page of the Histogram Statistics tool.
When
the Histogram Statistics tool is run the statistics for the
histogram will be displayed in the tool's parameters page.
Setting
the Parameters
The StartIndex
is value that the Histogram Statistics tool will use as its lowest
value when collecting data from the histogram. The EndIndex
is the highest value that will be collected from the histogram.
The Statistics tool will only use data whose values fall
between
the StartIndex and EndIndex. If the EndIndex is set to -1 it
will
default to the highest recorded value.
Set the IsCircular
setting to "1" when the highest value in the histogram is next to the
lowest value. If the histogram is not circular in this sense,
set
this setting to "0".
The Smoothing is the
amount of smoothing applied to the histogram.The
