ndwi¶
Normalized Difference Water Index (NDWI).
Overview¶
ndwi computes the Normalized Difference Water Index:
\[NDWI = \frac{Green - NIR}{Green + NIR}\]
Typical interpretation: - > 0.3: open water (often 0.4–0.6) - 0.0–0.3: moist vegetation / wetlands - < 0.0: dry vegetation / soil
Inputs must have matching shape (1D–2D); any numeric dtype is accepted (coerced to float64 internally).
