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 45.05th percentile overall, ranking 173 out of 313 indices with citation data. Among the 38 indices published within two years of 2016, it ranks 13 (68.42th percentile). Within the vegetation application domain, it is in the 31.75th percentile and ranks 145 out of 211 indices with citation data. Among the 14 similarly aged vegetation indices, it ranks 6 (64.29th percentile).
