IR: Constructors of infra-red wavebands

Description

The wavelength limits for std = "RS" and Landsat imagers have been taken from R package RStools and NASA and USGS documentation. They are defined simply as wavelength ranges without considering the spectral sensitivity of satellite intruments/cameras based on which remote sensing based indexes are usually calculated. The values for std = "ISO" are according to ISO 20473. The values for std = "CIE" are suggested values according to Wikipedia, and need verification.

Usage

IR(std = "ISO")
NIR(std = "ISO")
IRA(std = "CIE")
SWIR(std = "CIE")
IRB(std = "CIE")
SWIR1(std = "RS")
SWIR2(std = "RS")
MIR(std = "ISO")
IRC(std = "CIE")
FIR(std = "ISO")
TIR1(std = "RS")
TIR2(std = "RS")

Value

a waveband object wavelength defining a wavelength range.

Arguments

std

character string, "ISO", "CIE", or Landsat imagers named "LandsatRBV", "LandsatMSS", etc., or "RS", for remote sensing wavebands as defined in the documentation of package 'RStoolbox'.

Details

The names NIR, SWIR and TIR are abbreviations of near infra-red, short-wave infra-red and thermal infra-red, respectively.
