| WI1 Algorithm Specification | ![]() |
The WI1 operator algorithm computes the Water
Index 1 from a given product.
The WI1 results from the following equation:
WI1 = (G - S2) / (G + S2)
, where:
The bands are:
- G is the Green band
- S2 is the SWIR 2 band
Also the processor computes an additional flags band called 'wi1_flags' with the following bit coding:
| Bit Position | Description |
|---|---|
| Bit 0 | The computed value for WI1 is NAN or is Infinite |
| Bit 1 | The computed value for WI1 is less than -1 (minus one) |
| Bit 2 | The computed value for WI1 is greater than 1 (one) |
