NDYINormalized Difference Yellowness Index

Summary

The Normalized Difference Yellowness Index (NDYI) is a vegetation spectral index intended for multispectral sensing. It was introduced in 2016; its source is cited as John J. Sulik, & Dan S. Long (2016). Spectral considerations for modeling yield of canola. Remote Sensing of Environment, 184. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rse.2016.06.016 🡕.

Based on the latest citation data, this index is in the 45.74th percentile overall, ranking 174 out of 317 indices with citation data. Among the 38 indices published within two years of 2016, it ranks 14 (68.42th percentile). Within the vegetation application domain, it is in the 32.39th percentile and ranks 146 out of 213 indices with citation data. Among the 14 similarly aged vegetation indices, it ranks 7 (64.29th percentile).
