NormNIR Algorithm Specification

NormNIR

The NormNIR operator algorithm computes the Normalized NIR from a given product.

The NormNIR results from the following equation:

NormNIR = N / (N + G + R)

, where:

The bands are:

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


NormNIR-Flags

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

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