water: Water indices

In RemoteSensing: Remote Sensing

Description

Identify the presence of water, and related indices from remote sensing data.

Usage

ndwi(green, nir) 
nddi(ndvi, ndwi)
mndwi(green, swir) 
drought(ndvi, ndwi)
lswi(nir, swir) 
water(ndvi, albedo) 
waterModis(ndvi, band7) 

Arguments

green	Value of the GREEN satellite band
nir	Value of the NIR satellite band
swir	Value of the SWIR satellite band
ndvi	NDVI values
ndwi	NDWI values
band7	MODIS Band7 satellite band values
albedo	albedo layer

Details

lswi is the Land Surface Water Index

Value

Areas that are likely covered with water
