A curated, ready-to-use list of spectral indices for remote sensing applications, covering sensors like Landsat, Sentinel, and MODIS. It serves as a reference dataset with an accompanying Python package (Spyndex) and a published scientific paper.
Use cases
- find the right spectral index for NDVI-like vegetation analysis
- look up formulas for satellite imagery indices
- compute spectral indices in Google Earth Engine
- compare indices across Landsat and Sentinel sensors
- reference list of remote sensing indices for research
- use spectral index definitions in a Python GIS pipeline
When to choose
- you work with satellite imagery and need standard spectral index formulas
- you want a citable, curated reference of indices
- you use Google Earth Engine, Python, or JavaScript for remote sensing
When to avoid
- you need image processing or raster manipulation tools rather than index definitions
- you need a GUI application for analyzing imagery
