| MTVI1 Algorithm Specification | ![]() |
The MTVI1 operator algorithm computes the Modified
Triangular Vegetation
Index 1 from a given product.
The MTVI1 results from the following equation:
MTVI1 = 1.2 * (1.2 * (N - G) - 2.5 * (R - G))
, where:
The bands are:
- G is the Green band
- R is the Red band
- N is the NIR band
Also the processor computes an additional flags band called 'mtvi1_flags' with the following bit coding:
| Bit Position | Description |
|---|---|
| Bit 0 | The computed value for MTVI1 is NAN or is Infinite |
| Bit 1 | The computed value for MTVI1 is less than -1 (minus one) |
| Bit 2 | The computed value for MTVI1 is greater than 1 (one) |
