Refer to the samples below for various industry use cases of Geospatial APIs.
| Example | Description | Industry |
|---|---|---|
| Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) | Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) is used to quantify vegetation greenness and is useful in understanding vegetation density and assessing changes in plant health. | Agriculture |
| Water and Moisture Detection | Normalized Difference Moisture Index (NDMI) and Modified Normalized Difference Water Index (mNDWI) provides a relative indication of the wetness or dryness of an area, helping to identify potential water stress or drought conditions or combustibility levels in fire-prone areas. | Agriculture, Disaster Events |
| Sea Rise Risk Prediction | Geospatial APIs can help determine the possible regions that come under the threat of rise in sea levels | Climate Change, Disaster Events |
