CREATE NEW INFORMATION USING BAND CALCULATIONSThe raster bands are similar to matrices. They can be added, subtracted, multiplied and divided.
Calculations can be performed over the Landsat data to extract meaningful information.
Open the ‘Raster Calculator’
To identify water bodies and wet areas, we will calculate the Normalized Difference Pond Index
(Lacaux 2006)
![Page 52: Girls in Technology DC Session #4: Passion + STEM/ SHINING FIGURES: Women of NASA](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103010/58efc58b1a28ab61658b45e5/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
THE NORMALIZED DIFFERENCE POND INDEX (NDPI)NDPI was created in response to several indices aimed at identifying small water bodies.
When applied to Landsat data the formula to calculate NDPI: (Band 6-Band 3)/(Band 6 + Band 3)
This formula normalizes the differences between the shortwave infrared band, and the green band, focusing on open water, wet and swampy areas.

BUT WHAT IF I WANT TO SHOW ONLY WATER? The index thresholds may vary depending on the data used and the study area, but most of the time, we can divide the data at the 0 value.
Right click on the layer to open properties then open transparency
Set the values from 0 to 1 to transparent, and click apply

CHANGE THE COLOR OF THE WATER: BAND RENDERINGIn the properties menu, change the render type to ‘Singleband pseudocolor’Select a blue color ramp. The darker color should be the negative value.Change the min to -0.2 and the max to 0.2. Click classify and apply.
