NDSIWVWorldView Normalized Difference Soil Index

SoilMultispectralCitation Rank #250

Summary

The WorldView Normalized Difference Soil Index (NDSIWV) is a soil spectral index intended for multispectral sensing. It was introduced in 2012; its source is cited as Antonio F. Wolf (2012). Using WorldView-2 Vis-NIR multispectral imagery to support land mapping and feature extraction using normalized difference index ratios. SPIE Proceedings, 8390. https://doi.org/10.1117/12.917717 .

Based on the latest citation data, this index is in the 20.45th percentile overall, ranking 250 out of 313 indices with citation data. Among the 27 indices published within two years of 2012, it ranks 25 (11.11th percentile). Within the soil application domain, it is in the 17.65th percentile and ranks 15 out of 17 indices with citation data. Among the 1 similarly aged soil index, it ranks 1 (100th percentile).
