Vegetation Index

Equation

Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI)

(NIR − Red)/(NIR + Red)

Red Edge Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI_{red edge})

(NIR − Red Edge)/(NIR + Red Edge)

Enhanced Vegetation Index 2 (EVI₂)

2.5 × (NIR − Red)/(NIR + 2.4 × Red + 1)

Red Edge Simple Ratio (SR_{red edge})

(NIR)/ (Red Edge)

Green Chlorophyll Index (CI_green)

(NIR/Green) − 1

Red Edge Chlorophyll Index (CI_{red edge})

(NIR/Red Edge) − 1

Medium Resolution Imaging Spectrometer (MERIS) Terrestrial Chlorophyll Index (MTCI)

(NIR − Red Edge)/(Red Edge + Red)

Core Red Edge Triangular Vegetation Index (RTVI_core)

100(NIR − Red Edge) − 10(NIR − Green)
