| BNDVI Algorithm Specification | ![]() |
The BNDVI operator algorithm computes the Blue
Normalized Difference
Vegetation Index from a given
product.
The BNDVI results from the following equation:
BNDVI = (N - B) / (N + B)
, where:
The bands are:
- B is the Blue band
- N is the NIR band
Also the processor computes an additional flags band called 'bndvi_flags' with the following bit coding:
| Bit Position | Description |
|---|---|
| Bit 0 | The computed value for BNDVI is NAN or is Infinite |
| Bit 1 | The computed value for BNDVI is less than -1 (minus one) |
| Bit 2 | The computed value for BNDVI is greater than 1 (one) |
