Tabulate Area
Tabulate area helps users compare the relationship between two raster data and then create a cross table. By applying Tabulate Area, users can illustrate the distribution pattern of value within a certain zone. For example, you can input land use data as a zone layer and slope data as a class layer into Tabulate Area tool. The result will show the slope distribution within each land use zone. In that way, you can examine whether the current land use is proper or not.
