The Grid Collection Calculator creates a new grid collection combining existing ones using the given formula. It is assumed that all input grid collections have the same number of grid layers. The variables in the formula begin with the letter 'g' followed by a position index, which corresponds to the order of the grid collections in the input grid collection list (i.e.: g1, g2, g3, ... correspond to the first, second, third, ... grid collection in list). Grid collections from other systems than the default one can be addressed likewise using the letter 'h' (h1, h2, h3, ...), which correspond to the 'Grid collections from different Systems' list.
Example: sin(g1) * g2 + 2 * h1
To make complex formulas look more intuitive you have the option to use shortcuts. Shortcuts are defined following the formula separated by semicolons as 'shortcut = expression'.
Example: ifelse(lt(NDVI, 0.4), nodata(), NDVI); NDVI = (g1 - g2) / (g1 + g2)
