Summary
The Dry Built-Up Index (DBI) is a urban spectral index intended for multispectral and thermal sensing. It was introduced in 2018; its source is cited as Azad Rasul, Heiko Balzter, Gaylan R. Faqe Ibrahim, Hasan M. Hameed, James Wheeler, Bashir Adamu, Sa’ad Ibrahim, & Peshawa M. Najmaddin (2018). Applying Built-Up and Bare-Soil Indices from Landsat 8 to Cities in Dry Climates. Land, 7(3). https://doi.org/10.3390/land7030081 .
Based on the latest citation data, this index is in the 47.92th percentile overall, ranking 164 out of 313 indices with citation data.
