The SIPI index maximizes sensitivity to the ratio of bulk carotenoids to chlorophyll while minimizing the impact of the variable canopy structure. It is very useful in areas with high variability in the canopy structure, or leaf area index..
Values description: The range of a SIPI is from 0 to 2, where healthy green vegetation is from 0.8 to 1.8.

Sentinel - NDWI (Normalized Difference Water Index)
The NDWI index is most appropriate for water body mapping. The water body has strong absorbability and low radiation in the range from visible to infrared wavelengths. The index uses the green and Near Infra-red bands of remote sensing images based on this phenomenon. The NDWI can enhance the water information effectively in most cases. It is sensitive to built-up land and often results in over-estimated water bodies.
Values description: Values of water bodies are larger than 0.5. Vegetation has much smaller values, which results in distinguishing vegetation from water bodies easier. Built-up features have positive values between zero and 0.2.

Sentinel - NDVI (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index)
This most known and used vegetation index is a simple, but effective VI for quantifying green vegetation. It normalizes green leaf scattering in the Near Infra-red wavelength and chlorophyll absorption in the red wavelength.
Values description: The value range of an NDVI is -1 to 1. Negative values of NDVI (values approaching -1) correspond to water. Values close to zero (-0.1 to 0.1) generally correspond to barren areas of rock, sand, or snow. Low, positive values represent shrub and grassland (approximately 0.2 to 0.4), while high values indicate temperate and tropical rainforests (values approaching 1).

This index uses a normalized difference formulation instead of a simple ratio. It is a reflectance measurement, sensitive to changes in water content of plant canopies. The index values increase with increasing water content. Applications include agricultural crop management, forest canopy monitoring, and stressed vegetation detection.
Values description: The values of this index range from -1 to 1. The common range for green vegetation is between values of 0.02 to 0.6.

Sentinel - NBR-RAW (Normalized Burn Ratio)
To detect burned areas, the NBR-RAW index is the most appropriate choice. It highlights burned areas in large fire zones greater than 500 acres. Create pre- and post-fire NBR images, subtract the post-fire image from the pre-fire image to create a differenced (or delta) NBR image that indicates burn severity.
Values description: Darker pixels indicate burned areas.

The MSI is a reflectance measurement, sensitive to increases in leaf water content.
With the increase of water content of leaves in vegetation canopies increases also the strength of absorption around 1599nm. Absorption at 819nm is used as a reference, since it’s nearly unaffected by changing water content. Applications of the MSI include canopy stress analysis, productivity prediction and modelling, fire hazard condition analysis, and studies of ecosystem physiology. This index is inverted relative to other water vegetation indices; higher values indicate greater water stress and less water content.
Values description: The values of this index range from 0 to more than 3. The common range for green vegetation is 0.4 to 2.

Sentinel - GNDVI (Green Normalized Difference Vegetation Index)

In areas of dense canopy where the leaf area index (LAI) is high, the NDVI values can be improved by leveraging information in the blue wavelength. Information in this portion of the spectrum can help correct for soil background signals and atmospheric influences.
Values description: The range of values for the EVI is -1 to 1, where healthy vegetation generally falls between values of 0.20 to 0.80.

Sentinel - CHL-RED-EDGE (Chlorophyll Red-Edge)
Custom script: link
The ARVI is most useful in regions of high atmospheric aerosol content. It works by using reflectance measurements in the blue wavelengths to correct for atmospheric scattering effects that register in the red reflectance spectrum..
Values description: The range for an ARVI is -1 to 1 where green vegetation generally falls between values of 0.20 to 0.80.

Sentinel - ARI1 (Anthocyanin Reflectance Index)
The increases in this reflectance measurement, sensitive to anthocyanin in plant foliage, indicate changes in foliage via new growth and death. The reciprocal reflectance of anthocyanin is highest around 550nm; however, the reciprocal reflectance value at 550nm is also influenced by chlorophyll. The reciprocal reflectance at 700nm is used as a measure of chlorophyll content to remove the chlorophyll contribution from reflectance around 550nm.
Values description: The values of this index range from 0 to more than 0.2. The common range for green vegetation is between values of 0.001 to 0.1.
