0.42-0.50 μm： water body penetration, soil and vegetation discrimination, forest type mapping
0.52-0.60 μm： green reflectance peak of vegetation, vegetaion discrimination and plant vigour
0.63-0.69 μm： chlorophyll absorption, detecting roads, bare soils, vegetation types
0.76-0.90 μm： biomass, separation of water bodies from vegetation and discriminates soil moisture
1.55-1.75 μm： roads, bare soils, water, different types of vegetation, atmospheric and haze penetration
10.5-12.5 μm： thermal radiation, related to soil moisture and temperature of vegetation
2.08-2.35 μm： discriminating mineral and rock types, interpreting vegetation cover and soil moisture
