| MSR Algorithm Specification | ![]() |
The MSR operator algorithm computes the Modified
Simple Ratio from a given
product.
The MSR results from the following equation:
MSR = (N / R - 1) / pow((N / R + 1) , 0.5)
, where:
The bands are:
- R is the Red band
- N is the NIR band
Also the processor computes an additional flags band called 'msr_flags' with the following bit coding:
| Bit Position | Description |
|---|---|
| Bit 0 | The computed value for MSR is NAN or is Infinite |
| Bit 1 | The computed value for MSR is less than -1 (minus one) |
| Bit 2 | The computed value for MSR is greater than 1 (one) |
