RAVI is a QGIS plugin designed to seamlessly integrate with Google Earth Engine (GEE), enabling efficient processing and visualization of geospatial data. Utilizing the Sentinel-2 harmonized surface reflectance catalog, the plugin supports vegetation index calculations and easy download of multispectral imagery. These features make it a viable tool for students, researchers, farmers, and GIS professionals working in agriculture, land monitoring, or environmental management.
To install RAVI:
Choose the folder where you want to save the output files.
Set a custom time range or select a suggested one.
Choose the vegetation index you want to analyze from the dropdown menu.
Set the specified filter according to your analysis requirements.
Use AOI Buffer filter to reduce the AOI boundary for analysis.
Set the specified filter according to your analysis requirements.
Set the specified filter according to your analysis requirements.
Load and display an RGB layer for a specific date to analyze the visual appearance of the area. All spectral bands are downloaded, and the band numbers correspond to the Sentinel-2 bands as listed in the table below:
| Sentinel-2 Band Name | QGIS Band Number | Wavelength (nm) | Spatial Resolution (m) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Band 1 (Coastal aerosol) | 1 | 443 | 60 |
| Band 2 (Blue) | 2 | 490 | 10 |
| Band 3 (Green) | 3 | 560 | 10 |
| Band 4 (Red) | 4 | 665 | 10 |
| Band 5 (Vegetation Red Edge) | 5 | 705 | 20 |
| Band 6 (Vegetation Red Edge) | 6 | 740 | 20 |
| Band 7 (Vegetation Red Edge) | 7 | 783 | 20 |
| Band 8 (NIR) | 8 | 842 | 10 |
| Band 8A (Vegetation Red Edge) | 9 | 865 | 20 |
| Band 9 (Water Vapour) | 10 | 945 | 60 |
| Band 10 (SWIR - Cirrus) | 11 | 1375 | 60 |
| Band 11 (SWIR) | 12 | 1610 | 20 |
| Band 12 (SWIR) | 13 | 2190 | 20 |
Load and display a vegetation index layer for a specific date.
Generate and display a composite image based on the selected vegetation index and the user-defined metric.
The composite image will include all images within the current date selection. Use the date selection tool to filter out specific dates.
Apply the Savitzky-Golay filter to smooth the time series data for enhanced trend analysis.
The parameters for the Savitzky-Golay algorithm, such as the order of the polynomial and the window length, can be adjusted as needed to fine-tune the smoothing process.
Save the time series data in spreadsheet format (CSV).
To save the time series as an image, open it in the browser to enable the download option.
Add monthly precipitation data from NASA POWER for cross-variable comparisons.
Save the precipitation data in spreadsheet format (CSV).
Quickly run a new time series analysis by changing the Area of Interest (AOI), Vegetation Index, or time range.
Clear all loaded layers from the layer panel to start a new analysis or to declutter the workspace.

RAVI é um plugin para QGIS projetado para se integrar ao Google Earth Engine (GEE), permitindo o processamento e a visualização eficientes de dados geoespaciais. Utilizando o catálogo de reflectância de superfície harmonizada do Sentinel-2, o plugin suporta cálculos de índices de vegetação e o download fácil de imagens multiespectrais. Esses recursos tornam a ferramenta viável para estudantes, pesquisadores, agricultores e profissionais de GIS que atuam na agricultura, monitoramento de terras ou gestão ambiental.
Para instalar o RAVI:
Escolha a pasta onde deseja salvar os arquivos de saída.
Defina um intervalo de tempo personalizado ou selecione um sugerido.
Escolha o índice de vegetação que deseja analisar a partir do menu.
Utilize o filtro de Buffer de AOI para reduzir o limite da AOI para análise.
Defina o filtro especificado de acordo com os requisitos da sua análise.
Defina o filtro especificado de acordo com os requisitos da sua análise.
