Color Infrared maps show the relative health of vegetation and canopy structure. 

 

Shades of red and pink show healthy vegetation, while light to medium grey and brown shows native vegetation such as Chaparral. 

 

Dark grey and dark brown indicate dead or dying vegetation.

NDVI maps show the distribution of green vegetation cover. 

 

Dark green areas are generally large, dense vegetation. 

 

Non-vegetative areas are white to blue, this includes paved areas and hardscape.

NGVe maps help identify areas of reduced chlorophyll which is diagnostic of dead and dying plants. 

Bright green areas are indicative of healthy vegetation.

NGVe maps are created with a proprietary algorithm developed by FireWatch.
