TriVI Algorithm Specification

TriVI

The TriVI operator algorithm computes the Triangular Vegetation Index from a given product.

The TriVI results from the following equation:

TriVI = 0.5 * (120 * (N - G) - 200 * (R - G))

, where:

The bands are:

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


TriVI-Flags

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

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