Bi: Brightness Index: This index is representing the average of the brightness of a satellite image. The Brightness Index algorithm is representing the average of the brightness of a satellite image.

The result looks like a panchromatic image with the same resolution of the original image.This index is therefore sensitive to the brightness of soils which is highly correlated with the humidity and the presence of salts in surface (Escadafal, 1989).

The BI results from the following equation: BI = sqrt( ( (red_factor * red * red_factor * red) + (green_factor * green * green_factor * green) ) / 2 )
