Short description

Vegetation Health Index (VHI) is an index composed of a set of sub-indices related to the state of vegetation. These are calculated from satellite observation products, information in almost real time, on a regular basis and with spatial continuity. The VHI and the sub-indices are used for various purposes, of which its applicability in detecting and monitoring the phenomenon of drought and fire risk can be highlighted.
