Summary
The Red Edge Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (RENDVI) is a vegetation spectral index intended for multispectral sensing. It was introduced in 1994; its source is cited as Anatoly Gitelson, & Mark N. Merzlyak (1994). Spectral Reflectance Changes Associated with Autumn Senescence of Aesculus hippocastanum L. and Acer platanoides L. Leaves. Spectral Features and Relation to Chlorophyll Estimation. Journal of Plant Physiology, 143(3). https://doi.org/10.1016/s0176-1617(11)81633-0 .
Based on the latest citation data, this index is in the 86.58th percentile overall, ranking 44 out of 313 indices with citation data.
