| ARI2 Algorithm Specification | ![]() |
The ARI2 operator algorithm computes the
Anthocyanin Reflectance
Index 2 from a given product.
The ARI2 results from the following equation:
ARI2 = N * ((1.0 / G) - (1.0 / RE1))
, where:
The bands are:
- G is the Green band
- RE1 is the Red Edge 1 band
- R is the Red band
- N is the NIR band
Also the processor computes an additional flags band called 'ari2_flags' with the following bit coding:
| Bit Position | Description |
|---|---|
| Bit 0 | The computed value for ARI2 is NAN or is Infinite |
| Bit 1 | The computed value for ARI2 is less than -1 (minus one) |
| Bit 2 | The computed value for ARI2 is greater than 1 (one) |
