Evaluation of vegetation cover using the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) [PDF]
Revista Ambiente & Água, 2013 Soil loss by water erosion is the main cause of soil degradation in Brazil. However, erosion can be reduced by the presence of vegetation. The Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) makes it possible to identify the vegetative vigor of crops or ...

Validation of the normalized difference vegetation index as a measure of neighborhood greenness. [PDF]
Ann Epidemiol, 2011 To assess the validity of a Geographic Information Systems (GIS) measure, the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), as a measure of neighborhood greenness for epidemiologic research.Using remote-sensing spectral data, NDVI was calculated for a 100-m radial distance around 124 residences in greater Seattle.
