GIEWS Earth observation – global indicators
URL: http://www.fao.org/giews/earthobservation/asis/index_2.jsp?lang=en
The vegetation indicators (NDVI anomaly, VCI and VHI) provide alternative measures of the relative vegetation health. These indices can be used to monitor areas where vegetation may be stressed, as a proxy to detect potential drought. The precipitation indicators present a global analysis of the absolute (mm) and relative (%) rainfall levels per dekad, in addition to the long-term average precipitation levels (mm).
