Removing Back ground Values


jack_stepeny

Recommended Posts

I have created a NDVI image from LANDSAT TM data in erdas. Now I want to create a Layout for the NDVI image as well as need to reclassify the NDVI image in ArcGIS using Natural Breakings. My problem is that when I opt for the option No Color for the Background it also remove the 0 values from the NDVI image.

I simply want to remove 0 background values and keep the 0 values from the NDVI image.

Please suggest how to do that.

hello jack_stepeny,

NDVI converts the spectral values between 0 and 1, so there must not be any background with value 0 in it. There are several ways you can avoid this,

-clip/crop the background before you make NDVI,

-substract dark objects (DOS) before NDVI,

-restrict any calculation on background by delineating area with aoi/roi.

You will be much happier if you use Imagine only.
