Summary
The Enhanced Built-Up and Bareness Index (EBBI) is a urban spectral index intended for multispectral and thermal sensing. It was introduced in 2012; its source is cited as Abd. Rahman As-syakur, I Wayan Sandi Adnyana, I Wayan Arthana, & I Wayan Nuarsa (2012). Enhanced Built-Up and Bareness Index (EBBI) for Mapping Built-Up and Bare Land in an Urban Area. Remote Sensing, 4(10). https://doi.org/10.3390/rs4102957 .
Based on the latest citation data, this index is in the 53.04th percentile overall, ranking 148 out of 313 indices with citation data. Among the 27 indices published within two years of 2012, it ranks 12 (59.26th percentile). Within the urban application domain, it is in the 63.16th percentile and ranks 8 out of 19 indices with citation data. Among the 10 similarly aged urban indices, it ranks 6 (50th percentile).
