UrbanMultispectralCitation Rank #251

Summary

The Non-Homogeneous Feature Difference (NHFD) is a urban 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 251 out of 313 indices with citation data. Among the 27 indices published within two years of 2012, it ranks 26 (11.11th percentile). Within the urban application domain, it is in the 15.79th percentile and ranks 17 out of 19 indices with citation data. Among the 10 similarly aged urban indices, it ranks 9 (20th percentile).
