How should an ArcMap user export a raster that is clipped to a selected graphic?

The correct approach for exporting a raster that has been clipped to a selected graphic in ArcMap is through the Export Raster Data dialog box. This method allows users to specify the extent of the raster to be exported, making it possible to capture only the section of the raster that corresponds to the selected graphic.

When a graphic is selected, the Export Raster Data dialog provides options to set parameters like the output format, spatial reference, and the area of interest that directly corresponds to the selected graphic. This functionality is particularly useful for creating more focused raster datasets that are relevant to specific analysis or visualization needs.

While the other methods such as Raster To Other Formats and Copy Raster do allow for raster manipulation, they do not provide the same level of control over the extent of the raster being exported when using a selection graphic. The Split Raster option is more suited for dividing a raster into multiple parts based on certain criteria or features rather than exporting a specifically clipped area.
