Utilizing TVDI and NDWI to classify severity of agricultural drought in Chuping, Malaysia

Agricultural drought is crucial in understanding the relationship to crop production functions which can be monitored using satellite remote sensors. The aim of this research is to combine temperature vegetation dryness index (TVDI) and normalized difference water index (NDWI) classifications for id...
