NDVI from Sentinel-2 in SNAP

Guided tutorial explaining how to derive NDVI from Sentinel-2 imagery in the ESA Sentinel Application Platform (SNAP)

I loved the video, simple and comprehensive for a first time SNAP user...I found this very useful!!!

[TheDivergirl]

It was VERY VERY VERY HELPFUL ! thank you so much

Thanks for your teachings, have a video or tutorial explaining the NDWI classification. Greetings.

I am late...but this is clear and interesting video!

The radiation is NOT absorbed by the water but reflected. This is called specular reflection. Thus, nothing is reflected back to the sensor and the water appears black as no values can be captured for that area.

Don't you need to perform atmospheric correction for L1C data?

[habtamuabay]

Is that possible to calculate STR in SNAP

[BEnjamin_C]

I have a question, what if I want just to calculate the Ndvi in water how will I go about it? I'm still a beginner using SNAP

[anagoncalves]

why you don't do first the refletance?

[gigioarango]

Great tutorial. I am wondering how can I use some NDVI reference data for validation of the SENTINEL-2 derived NDVI? Please let me know

Hello,

thanks for the videos, they are really helpful!

Using Sentinel-2 Data, I would like to calculate the Urban Index with the formula (B12-B8)/(B12+B8) but it doesn't work. The error message is "Please check the band maths expression you have entered. It is not valid." which I don't have an explanation for.

Are the NDVI results from SNAP of the same quality as arcgis? Thanks

[bazilahabdulhamid]

Hi I would like to ask, can the calculation of NDVI process after doing the supervised classification? And how you process the image that you use for the NDVI process? I’m a beginner and I’m not quite understand

For applying atmospheric-, terrain and cirrus correction of Top-Of- Atmosphere Level 1C input data
Watch this video for applying Sentinel-2 correction using Sen2cor plugin

Is there a way to obtain NDVI from Sentinel-3 imagery?

[markbrown]

I noticed there are slight differences in the values between the two NDVI methods. From the band maths the min value is -0.59742975 and max value is 0.515567128. From the vegetation radiometric indicies the min value is -0.60189227 and the max value is 0.522966611. Do you know a reason for the differences?

How come that your Sentinel 2 imagery is so much more hi-res than mine? If I download it from USGS or Copernicus it is much more 'pixely'.

My snap does not open zip-file. What is problem?
