    The Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) quantifies vegetation by measuring the difference between near-infrared light, which is strongly reflected by vegetation, and red light, which is absorbed. NDVI values range from -1 to +1, with negative values likely indicating water, values close to +1 indicating dense green leaves, and values around 0 possibly representing urban areas or lacking green leaves. NDVI is calculated using the near-infrared and red light channels in its formula to measure vegetation levels.

    What is NOVI (Normalized Difference

    Vegetation Index)?
    Normalized Difference VegetationIndex (NOVI) quantifies vegetation by measuring the
    difference between near-infrared (which vegetation strongly reflects) and red lght (which
    vegetation absorbs).

    NOVI always ranges from -1to +1.

    For example,when you have negative values,it's highlylikely that it's water. On the other hand,if
    you have an NOVI value close to +1,there's a high possibility thatit's dense greenleaves.But when
    NOVIis close to zero, there aren't green leaves and it could even be an urbanized area.

    Values close to zero (-0.1to0.1) generally correspond to barren areas of rock,sand,or


    snow. ow, positive values represent shrub and grassland (approximately 0.2 to 0.4),while
    highvalues indicate temperate and tropicalrainforests (values approaching )j T

    How do you calculate NDVI?


    As shown below, Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NOVI) uses the
    NIR
    and red cha nnels in its formu l a.
