* Where NIR is the near infrared band, 842 nm for S-2, for NDVI, NDWI, and SAVI; Red is 665 nm for S-2 for NDVI and SAVI; MIR (Medium Infrared) is 2190 nm for S-2, for NDWI; P(i,j) is a normalized gray-tone spatial dependence matrix such that SUM(i,j = 0, N − 1) (P(i,j)) = 1; i and j represent the rows and columns, respectively, for the measures of Mean, Variance and Correlation; μ is the mean, for the Variance textural measure; and N is the number of distinct grey levels in the quantized image; μx. μy, σx, and σy are the means and standard deviations of px and py, respectively, for the correlation textural measure.
