Summary
The Carotenoid Reflectance Index at 550 nm (CRI550) is a vegetation spectral index intended for hyperspectral sensing. It was introduced in 2007; its source is cited as Anatoly A. Gitelson, Yoav Zur, Olga B. Chivkunova, & Mark N. Merzlyak (2007). Assessing Carotenoid Content in Plant Leaves with Reflectance Spectroscopy¶. Photochemistry and Photobiology, 75(3). https://doi.org/10.1562/0031-8655(2002)0750272accipl2.0.co2 .
Based on the latest citation data, this index is in the 27.16th percentile overall, ranking 229 out of 313 indices with citation data.
