This project undertakes a comprehensive examination of the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) values across Maharashtra, India, during the monsoon months (June to September) of 2018 and 2023, utilizing QGIS for spatial analysis. NDVI serves as a pivotal indicator in remote sensing for evaluating the vitality and density of vegetation by comparing the difference between the near-infrared light, which is strongly reflected by vegetation, and the red light, which is absorbed. The resulting index ranges from -1 to +1, where values closer to +1 signify robust and dense vegetation, and values closer to -1 indicate sparse or non-vegetated areas. This study's methodology encompasses the acquisition of satellite imagery for the specified periods and subsequent NDVI computation within QGIS. A significant aspect of this project involves the classification of NDVI values into three distinct categories: high, moderate, and low vegetation health. This categorization facilitates a nuanced spatial analysis of vegetation across Maharashtra, providing insights into areas that exhibit vigorous vegetation growth, regions with moderate vegetation, and areas where vegetation is sparse or stressed. The project aims to map these variations and to perform a comparative analysis between the data of 2018 and 2023. This comparison is crucial for identifying trends in vegetation health and density, which could be indicative of environmental changes, agricultural practices evolution, or the impact of conservation efforts over the five-year span. By quantifying areas under each NDVI category, the project provides valuable data for advisory and analytical purposes.
