| NDISIr Algorithm Specification | ![]() |
The NDISIr operator algorithm computes the
Normalized Difference
Impervious Surface Index
Red from a given product.
The NDISIr results from the following equation:
NDISIr = (T - (R + N + S1) / 3.0) / (T + (R + N + S1) /
3.0)
, where:
The bands are:
- R is the Red band
- N is the NIR band
- S1 is the SWIR 1 band
- T is the Thermal band
Also the processor computes an additional flags band called 'ndisir_flags' with the following bit coding:
| Bit Position | Description |
|---|---|
| Bit 0 | The computed value for NDISIr is NAN or is Infinite |
| Bit 1 | The computed value for NDISIr is less than -1 (minus one) |
| Bit 2 | The computed value for NDISIr is greater than 1 (one) |
