Block operation
A neighborhood operation that uses a rectangle (block) and assigns the calculated value to all block cells in the output raster.

Distance measured by the cost of impedance of moving between cells.
Local operation

Raster data extraction
An operation that uses a data set, a graphic object, or a query expression to extract data from an existing raster.
Reclassification
A local operation that reclassifies cell values of an input raster to create a new raster.
