index_registry R Documentation
Central Registry of Spectral and Geospatial Indices
Description
Retrieves metadata for all built-in spectral indices or a specific index by name
or category. Metadata includes mathematical formulas, required spectral bands,
parameter defaults, purpose, interpretation guidelines, limitations, scale sensitivity,
and scientific literature references.
Usage
index_registry(category = NULL)
Arguments
category
Optional character string to filter indices by category
(e.g., "vegetation", "water", "urban", "soil", "moisture", "snow").
Value
A data.frame containing the registry of supported indices and their metadata.
Examples
# View all indices
reg <- index_registry()
reg[, c("index", "name", "category")]
# View vegetation indices only
veg_reg <- index_registry(category = "vegetation")
veg_reg$index
