Abstract  The SENTINEL-2 Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) is a proxy to quantify the vegetation amount. It is defined as NDVI=(NIR-Red)/(NIR+Red) where NIR corresponds to the reflectance in the near infrared band , and Red to the reflectance in the red band. It is closely related to FAPAR and is little scale dependant.
Purpose  The product is an indication of the greenness of the biomes. This product can be useful for all applications related to the environment monitoring.
Credit  This product is produced and distribued by the VITO Remote Sensing Department. Different regions are generated in the frame of different projects funded by different agencies e.g. BELSPO (Belgian Science Policy), ESA, ...
