Indices

Nr.	Name	General Formula	Comment
1	Global Environment Monitoring Index	$(n (1 - 0.25 n) - \frac{RED - 0.125}{1 - RED})$
2	Modified Soil Adjusted Vegetation Index	$\frac{2 NIR + 1 - \sqrt{{(2 NIR + 1)}^{2} - 8 (NIR - RED)}}{2}$
3	Normalized Difference NIR/Red	$\frac{NIR - RED}{NIR + RED}$
4	Soil Adjusted Vegetation Index	$\frac{800nm - 670nm}{800nm + 670nm + L} (1 + L)$
5	Weighted Difference Vegetation Index	$NIR - a \cdot RED$
