1.2. Remote Sensing and Vegetation Indices. Remote sensing of vegetation is mainly performed by obtaining the electromagnetic wave reflectance information from canopies using passive sensors. It is well known that the reflectance of light spectra from plants changes with plant type, water content within tissues, and other intrinsic factors . Vegetation Index. Vegetation indices are one of the more popular and extensively studied products of remote sensing, and use transformations of spectral bands of the electromagnetic spectrum that are measured as reflectance from the Earth's surface by satellites. In addition to diverse range of vegetation indices derived from single-phase, remote-sensing imagery that has been applied to mangrove forest classifications, recently a submerged mangrove recognition index (SMRI for short) that considers multi-tidal, high-resolution, remote-sensing imagery, and which is based on the differential spectral This Special Issue, "Leaf Area Index (LAI) Retrieval using Remote Sensing", is calling for papers that demonstrate original research that can overcome or address the above challenges and gaps and develop corresponding solutions, in particular using remote sensing recent advances. Dr. Roshanak Darvishzadeh Dr. Abel Ramoelo Guest Editors. Keywords Vegetation Indices has proved to have an extremely wide (and growing) range of applications. It is used to monitor vegetation conditions and therefore provide early warning on droughts and famines. Most commonly used vegetation index is Normalized Vegetation Difference Index (NDVI). Other indices are used, with a range of complexities. Enhancing green vegetation using mathematical equations and transformations . What is a “vegetation index”? • Some mathematical combination or transformation of spectral bands that • IPVI is functionally equivalent to NDVI and RVI, but it only ranges in value from 0.0-1.0.
Initially, the practical application of indices was found in remote sensing of vegetation cover. The spectral indices used to estimate the vegetation state are called vegetation indices. The first vegetation index, RVI (Ratio Vegetation Index), was developed in 1969 by Carl F. Jordan. RVI (The simple Ratio Vegetation Index) as a basis of interpreting the object. In normal conditions, results of remote sensing indices assessed are relatively accurate. However, for the hilly and plateaus areas, where the information is disturbed by mountain shadows, the question is whether the remote sensing A REVIEW OF VEGETATION INDICES 97 interpretable. However, the fundamental interactions of radiant energy with the Earth's surface must be understood for remote sensing to be efficiently applied This ratio is known as the Ratio Vegetation Index (RVI) RVI = NIR/Red. Since vegetation has high NIR reflectance but low red reflectance, vegetated areas will have higher RVI values compared to non-vegetated aeras.

SAVI and NDVI performed best of the seven indices considered.

The vegetation index RVI exhibited a great ability to indirectly indicate the contents of chlorophyll and nitrogen in leaves, leaf area, and dry weight, and it therefore has a great potential to assess the insect pest damage for crops. While many studies under control and natural conditions have confirmed that the pest stress A 'read' is counted each time someone views a publication summary (such as the title, abstract, and list of authors), clicks on a figure, or views or downloads the full-text.

Microwave remote sensing has great potential in the monitoring and assessment of crop growth [1]. Among all frequencies, L band has been found to be found sensitive to vegetation growth Using Remote Sensing to Determine Differences in Soybean Seeding Rates .

In 1973 Rouse et al., Remote sensing technology has been used successfully in agriculture starting with The use of modified versions of RVI and NDVI, such as the soil adjusted vegetation index (SAVI),can allow the effect of A further index that can be used to correct for the affect of the remote sensing research and you want to create you own spectral index.
