NDISIndwiNormalized Difference Impervious Surface Index with NDWI

UrbanMultispectralThermalCitation Rank #139

Summary

The Normalized Difference Impervious Surface Index with NDWI (NDISIndwi) is a urban spectral index intended for multispectral and thermal sensing. It was introduced in 2010; its source is cited as Hanqiu Xu (2010). Analysis of Impervious Surface and its Impact on Urban Heat Environment using the Normalized Difference Impervious Surface Index (NDISI). Photogrammetric Engineering & Remote Sensing, 76(5). https://doi.org/10.14358/pers.76.5.557 .

Based on the latest citation data, this index is in the 56.87th percentile overall, ranking 139 out of 313 indices with citation data. Among the 33 indices published within two years of 2010, it ranks 13 (72.73th percentile). Within the urban application domain, it is in the 89.47th percentile and ranks 6 out of 19 indices with citation data. Among the 11 similarly aged urban indices, it ranks 5 (90.91th percentile).
