| VARI700 Algorithm Specification | ![]() |
The VARI700 operator algorithm computes the
Visible Atmospherically
Resistant Index (700 nm) from a given
product.
The VARI700 results from the following equation:
VARI700 = (RE1 - 1.7 * R + 0.7 * B) / (RE1 + 1.3 * R - 1.3 *
B)
, where:
The bands are:
- B is the Blue band
- RE1 is the Red Edge 1 band
- R is the Red band
Also the processor computes an additional flags band called 'vari700_flags' with the following bit coding:
| Bit Position | Description |
|---|---|
| Bit 0 | The computed value for VARI700 is NAN or is Infinite |
| Bit 1 | The computed value for VARI700 is less than -1 (minus one) |
| Bit 2 | The computed value for VARI700 is greater than 1 (one) |
