Cambodia Subnational NDVI: 10-Day Vegetation Indicators and Anomalies

Dekadal NDVI vegetation indicators for Cambodia are provided at the sub-national level based on NASA MODIS collection 6.1 satellite data. Created by the World Food Programme, the data includes 10-day averages and anomalies mapped to specific administrative Pcodes.

Use Cases

• Monitoring agricultural health by comparing vim against vim_lta across different provinces
• Identifying drought conditions using the viq anomaly percentage column
• Correlating vegetation density with food security outcomes using Pcode join keys

Strengths

• Uses NASA MODIS collection 6.1 high-quality satellite imagery
• Includes vim_lta for historical baseline comparison
• Provides n_pixels to indicate the statistical weight of each aggregate

Limitations

• Aggregated at the administrative level, losing granular pixel-level spatial variation
• Dependent on cloud-free satellite observations for accurate vim values
