    Application domain: Water Formula: B + 2.5 * G - 1.5 * (N + S1) - 0.25 * S2 Bands: ["B","G","N","S1","S2"] Reference: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rse.2013.08.029 Automated Water Extraction Index (AWEI) is dedicated to improve classification accuracy in areas that include shadow and dark surfaces that other classification methods often fail to classify correctly. AWEIsh is primarily formulated for further improvement of accuracy by removing shadow pixels.

Consisting in the convertion of multispectral data acquired from satellite or aerial platforms into a set of orthogonal components representing different aspects of land cover and land surface characteristics. TCG being a proxy of vegetation.

The EBBI was more effective at discriminating built-up and bare land areas and at increasing the accuracy of the built-up density percentage than five other indices.

    Application domain: Vegetation Formula: 0.5 * (2.0 * N + 1 - (((2 * N + 1) ** 2) - 8 * (N - R)) ** 0.5) Bands: ["R","N"] Reference: https://doi.org/10.1016/0034-4257(94)90134-1 Modified Soil-Adjusted Vegetation Index (MSAVI) is adjusted to soil effects and is sensitive to early vegetation in the field, it works even when the earth is hardly covered with crops. MSAVI is useful at the very beginning of crop production season – when seedlings start to establish.

    Application domain: Urban Formula: ((S1 - S2 - N)/(S1 + S2 + N)) + 0.5 Bands: ["N","S1","S2"] Reference: https://doi.org/10.3390/land10030231 Modified Bare Soil Index (MBI) combines shortwave infrared and near-infrared wavelengths. Bare soil extracted from the MBI achieved higher overall accuracy of about 98% and a kappa coefficient over 0.96, compared to bare soil index (BSI), normalized different bare soil index (NDBaI), and dry bare soil index (DBSI). The results also revealed that MBI considerably contributes to the accuracy of land cover classification.
