 Replying to [comment:3 kristinah]:
 > Actually, the formula I provided was also wrong. The correct formula has
 the "+" in a different position

 > This was taken from the article where the formula was actually defined:
 > Gitelson, Anatoly A.; Kaufman, Yoram J.; Merzlyak, Mark N. (1996)
 > Use of a green channel in remote sensing of global vegetation from EOS-
 MODIS
 > Remote Sensing of Environment 58 (3), 289-298.
 > DOI: 10.1016/s0034-4257(96)00072-7

 > When reading the explanation about the meaning of the index in this
 article, it became clear to me, that "indexdatabase.de" must be wrong.
