As a service user I want to be able to identify the plant pixel value on any part of a layer, so that I can immediately see and compare one part of a layer with another.
When I’m studying and interpreting a layer, such as NDVI, it would be really good if I could see a reflectance value for any part of the chosen layer that I click with the mouse pointer. This can work exactly the same way as the current ‘right-click’ option which tags a GPS location. It’s very helpful to be able to compare specific points on a layer rather than setting an annotation and being given an average.
This would be useful for building a narrative for clients, accompanied by the current data & pdf outputs.
Hi Chris,
we have this feature on the roadmap, but shifted it back a bit due to more important features we want to do first. It will come eventually.

Hi all,
I’m also really interested on this feature. It would be really important also for us to get the value of NDVI on a point of the field.
Do you have any news on this? If and (maybe) when it will be implemented?
Thanks a lot
You can already get this value, by placing an annotation point on top of an index layer. In the reght sidebar you will then see for example the NDVI calue of that point, it also works with polygons.
Thanks a lot for the explanation!
Hi Julius,
I need a little clarification on this subject.
I am using Pix4D to create prescription maps, what I need would be the NDVI mean of the squares created in the operation.
Having the NDVI for each point of the map is for sure useful but can lead to some errors in function of the position of the point.
So my question is; Is there any way to see the grid used to create the Operation layer on the NDVI layer? This way it would be easier to get the NDVI value of a specific area.
Thanks a lot for your time
I am not sure what exactly you need. Can you describe what problem you need to solve?
Hi Julius,
Ok I’ll try to explain it a bit better.
In our process of creating a prescription map we do some scouting before creating the map. In that scouting we take some point of the field where the crop is in good shape. But those are not precise point, but more like areas where the crop is in good shape. And to decide which is the good area we take the 12m squares created using the operation layer from pix4d. What we would like to know is the average NDVI from that square.
But with what you suggested I can get only the NDVI on a specific point. I saw also that there is the possibility to have the mean NDVI from an annotation area, what I am asking is: Is there any way to know that the annotation area is exactly the same as the one created with the operation? For example a way to see both layers overlapped and do the annotation on one of the two?
If you need further details please let me know.
Thanks for your time
