How do I convert a shapefile to a raster image using ArcMap 10?

What functions within the conversion toolbox do I use?

Best Answer

I presume you have a point shapefile which you want to turn into raster.

There is an ArcMap 10 tool Point to Raster (Conversion) that should do the job.

You can set raster cell size and output raster image format, ie, .tif, .img etc.
