Normalized Difference Water Index for Andalusia Region based on MODIS

Description

Normalized Difference Water Index (NDWI) calculated using MODIS09 imagery provided by USGS/EROS.The original MODIS09 bands were used as data source and then the ndwi was calculated.  The Normalized Difference Water Index (NDWI) (Gao, 1996) is a satellite-derived index from the Near-Infrared (NIR) and Short Wave Infrared (SWIR) channels. Its usefulness for drought monitoring and early warning has been demonstrated in different studies (e.g., Gu et al., 2007; Ceccato et al., 2002). It is computed using the near infrared (NIR) and the short wave infrared (SWIR) reflectance, which makes it sensitive to changes in liquid water content and in spongy mesophyll of vegetation canopies (Gao, 1996 ; Ceccato et al., 2001). https://edo.jrc.ec.europa.eu/documents/factsheets/factsheet_ndwi.pdf   Each compressed file contains the NDVI by years. Internally each file have an ISO TC 211 metadata with a complete geographical description. spatial resolution: 463.313m format: GeoTiff reference system:SR-ORG 6842   To easily manage the data, each file follow name structure: YYYYMMDD_medgold_workpackage_AoI_sensor_index. YYYYMMDD: Imagery acquisition date medgold: Project name sensor: sensor name workpackage: sectorial workpackage name ( WP2 - Olive Oil Sector, WP3 – Wine Grape sector, WP4-  Durum wheat pasta sector) Aoi: Andalusia, Douro Valley. Index: NDVI, NMDI, NDWI Example: 20000218_medgold_wp2_andalusia_MOD09A1_ndwi
