CIG Algorithm Specification

CIG

The CIG operator algorithm computes the Chlorophyll Index Green from a given product.

The CIG results from the following equation:

CIG = (N / G) - 1.0

, where:

The bands are:

- G is the Green band
- N is the NIR band


CIG-Flags

Also the processor computes an additional flags band called 'cig_flags' with the following bit coding:

Bit Position Description
Bit 0 The computed value for CIG is NAN or is Infinite
Bit 1 The computed value for CIG is less than -1 (minus one)
Bit 2 The computed value for CIG is greater than 1 (one)
