I have created a slope map with classes 0-3,3-5,5-50 deg. Overlay a polygon layer. How do I undertake zonal stats to calculate the percentage of each of the zonal classes in each unique polygon.
Mapping Center Answer:
You could do zonal stats--though I've always done vector based processing of that (not saying it's the only way, maybe somebody else will comment with some experience in the direction you're thinking of).
I convert the reclassified slope classes to polygons (though I also run a majority filter on them first to eliminate really small/insignificant holes--it's sort of like running Fill on your DEM).
Then I would use the Split tool with your zone polygons, and finally dissolve based on Zone ID and slope class.
