Description Usage Arguments Details Author(s) References See Also

Calculates vegetation indices: Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI) and Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) and land-water index: Land Surface Water Index (LSWI). Identifies flooded pixels and permanent water using thresholds derived from vegetation and land-water indices.

1	modisVeg(inpath, informat, outformat="raster", tiles="all")

`inpath`	path with cleaned modis files
`informat`	File format of the input files can either be "raster" (.grd) or "GTiff" (.tif).
`outformat`	File format desired by user can either be "raster" (.grd) or "GTiff" (.tif).
`tiles`	vertical and horizontal tile number of MODIS, tiles should follow the format in the MODIS filename, e.g. "h29v07"

Uses NIR, RED, BLUE, SWIR bands that has been cleaned using modisClean as input in calculating the indices.
