Hello everyone,
my name is Giovanni and I am relatively new to ArcGIS and Python coding. I have a problem I haven't been able to solve: I have a large amount of .tif raster which I need to transform in .bil while at the same time changing their name. Both the input and output name have their own logic: input is equal to "australia_arcYYYYMMDD.tif" where YYYY is the year, MM the month and DD the day, output required is "rain_YYYYDDD.bil" where DDD is the Julian date, so that anyhow there will be a one-to-one relationship between the two.
I was trying something along the line of:
or otherwise
but neither of the two seems to work. As I've said I have little knowledge of the program (I'm a social scientist), so there might be some rookie error. The idea would be to write a long elif statement (365 elif + 1 else) once I got the proper way of doing it, is definitely not the most polished way of obtaining the result but the file are relatively small so that converting a year takes around ten minute. If anybody has any suggestion I am sure it will prove of invaluable help.
Thanks in advance
Giovanni

Code:

outLoc = ("e:/Pyton/prova/bil")
outDirectory = outLoc
datasetList = arcpy.ListDatasets("*", "Raster")
for d in datasetList:
tif = str(d)
elif tif == "australia_arc20000101*":
outRast = "rain_2000001.bil"
outD = outDirectory + "/" + outRast
arcpy.CopyRaster_management(tif,outD)
elif tif == "australia_arc20000102*":
outRast = "rain_2000002.bil"
outD = outDirectory + "/" + outRast
arcpy.CopyRaster_management(tif,outD)

outRast = "rain_2000001.bil"
