ndvi2: Calculate and plot a 2-band NDVI.

In visa: Vegetation Imaging Spectroscopy Analyzer

Calculate and plot a 2-band NDVI.

Description

This function calculates a 2-band NDVI using the nsr function.

Usage

ndvi2(s, b1, b2)

Arguments

s	Spectral data in the format of visa's Spectra object, spectra.dataframe or spectra.matrix.
b1	A integer number which defines the wavelength of the 1st spectral band.
b2	A integer number which defines the wavelength of the 2nd spectral band.

Details

Calculate a NDVI with two specific bands of choice. The new NDVI follows the the standard formula

NDVI = (\lambda_i + \lambda_j)/(\lambda_i - \lambda_j)

. Bands i and j correspond to the b1 and b2 input arguments, respectively. Wavelength indexes are determined based on the first argument 's'.

Value

ndvi	The returned values are the new NDVI.

Examples

library(visa)
s <- NSpec.DF$spectra
ndvi2(s, 780, 680)
