Slicing classifies the values of a raster map. Ranges of values of the input map are grouped together into one output class. A domain Group should be created beforehand; it lists the upper boundaries of the groups and the group names.
With Slicing, a map with for example slope values ranging from 0 to 200% can be grouped into relief classes: Flat (0-2%), Undulating (2-8%), Rolling (8-16%), Hilly (16-30%), Mountainous (>30%) (FAO).
