Calculate Normalized Difference Snow Index (NDSI) #6

Description

@RobinGummels

Description:
Implement Step 6: Calculate the Normalized Difference Snow Index using the formula NDSI = (B03 - B11) / (B03 + B11) for the median composite.

Tasks:

  • Implement NDSI formula: (B03 - B11) / (B03 + B11)
  • Handle division by zero cases
  • Ensure NDSI values are in range [-1, 1]
  • Create visualization of NDSI result
  • Validate against known glacier locations from seeds

Acceptance Criteria:

  • NDSI is correctly calculated for all pixels
  • No NaN or Inf values from division issues
  • NDSI values are within valid range [-1, 1]
  • High NDSI values (>0.42) correspond to seed locations
