Normalized Difference Water Index for Andalusia Region based on MODIS

  • 1. GMV Aerospace and Defense

Description

Normalized Difference Water Index (NDWI) calculated using MODIS09 imagery provided by USGS/EROS.The original MODIS09 bands were used as data source and then the ndwi was calculated. 

The Normalized Difference Water Index (NDWI) (Gao, 1996) is a satellite-derived index from the Near-Infrared (NIR) and Short Wave Infrared (SWIR) channels. Its usefulness for drought monitoring and early warning has been demonstrated in different studies (e.g., Gu et al., 2007; Ceccato et al., 2002). It is computed using the near infrared (NIR) and the short wave infrared (SWIR) reflectance, which makes it sensitive to changes in liquid water content and in spongy mesophyll of vegetation canopies (Gao, 1996 ; Ceccato et al., 2001).
