NDBaINormalized Difference Bareness Index

SoilMultispectralThermalCitation Rank #217

Summary

The Normalized Difference Bareness Index (NDBaI) is a soil spectral index intended for multispectral and thermal sensing. Its source is cited as Hongmei Zhao, & Xiaoling Chen (n.d.). Use of normalized difference bareness index in quickly mapping bare areas from TM/ETM+. Proceedings. 2005 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2005. IGARSS '05., 3. https://doi.org/10.1109/igarss.2005.1526319 .

Based on the latest citation data, this index is in the 31.31th percentile overall, ranking 217 out of 313 indices with citation data. Within the soil application domain, it is in the 41.18th percentile and ranks 11 out of 17 indices with citation data.
