Comparison of the Landsat-8 Barest Earth mosaic to its inverse, most vegetated state, to highlight the reduction in vegetation influence. The mosaics are coloured using shortwave infrared 1.57–1.65 µm, near infrared 0.85–0.88 µm, green 0.53–0.59 µm in the red, green and blue image channels. a Barest Earth Landsat-8 mosaic, b Most Vegetated Landsat-8 mosaic generated by inverting the Bare Earth algorithm to get the opposite response. Remaining green areas in the Barest Earth mosaic indicate areas of persistent vegetation.
