About VegDRI

The Vegetation Drought Response Index, or VegDRI, is a weekly depiction of vegetation stress across the contiguous United States.

Development of the VegDRI map and associated products is a joint effort by the National Drought Mitigation Center (NDMC), the U.S. Geological Survey’s National Center for Earth Resources Observation and Science (EROS), and the High Plains Regional Climate Center (HPRCC).
