Description

SAVI minimizes soil background influence on vegetation signal by incorporating a soil brightness correction factor (L=0.5). It performs better than NDVI in arid and semi-arid regions with sparse vegetation cover. Widely used in dryland agriculture and rangeland monitoring applications.
