    You should be able to create a mosaic dataset. This way, you can keep them all as separate rasters, but they will be treated as one large single mosaic raster. Search for the 'Create Mosaic Dataset' tool and the 'Add Rasters to Mosaic Dataset' tool. (NB: Do NOT use the 'Mosaic' or 'Mosaic to New Raster' tool, which do merge them all into a single raster.)

    Would it be possible to do this in pieces and keep adding files to the same mosaic data set? I would download maybe 50 files, create a mosaic dataset and then clip that mosaic down around my points. I would then repeat this by adding more files to the dataset and clipping again.

  • Yes, you can add new rasters to an existing mosaic dataset at any time using the 'Add Rasters to Mosaic Dataset' tool. I should write this up as an answer... will do so now... Commented Apr 28, 2024 at 21:38
