| MGRVI Algorithm Specification | ![]() |
The MGRVI operator algorithm computes the Modified
Green Red Vegetation
Index from a given product.
The MGRVI results from the following equation:
MGRVI = (pow(G , 2.0) - pow(R , 2.0)) / (pow(G , 2.0) + pow(R
, 2.0))
, where:
The bands are:
- G is the Green band
- R is the Red band
Also the processor computes an additional flags band called 'mgrvi_flags' with the following bit coding:
| Bit Position | Description |
|---|---|
| Bit 0 | The computed value for MGRVI is NAN or is Infinite |
| Bit 1 | The computed value for MGRVI is less than -1 (minus one) |
| Bit 2 | The computed value for MGRVI is greater than 1 (one) |
