Summary

The Difference Vegetation Index Plus (DVIplus) is a vegetation spectral index intended for multispectral sensing. It was introduced in 2019; its source is cited as Wei Yang, Hideki Kobayashi, Cong Wang, Miaogen Shen, Jin Chen, Bunkei Matsushita, Yanhong Tang, Yongwon Kim, M. Syndonia Bret-Harte, Donatella Zona, Walter Oechel, & Akihiko Kondoh (2019). A semi-analytical snow-free vegetation index for improving estimation of plant phenology in tundra and grassland ecosystems. Remote Sensing of Environment, 228. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rse.2019.03.028 .

Based on the latest citation data, this index is in the 22.4th percentile overall, ranking 247 out of 317 indices with citation data. Among the 70 indices published within two years of 2019, it ranks 47 (34.29th percentile). Within the vegetation application domain, it is in the 17.84th percentile and ranks 176 out of 213 indices with citation data. Among the 36 similarly aged vegetation indices, it ranks 22 (41.67th percentile).
