Earth system dynamics, such as plant dynamics, water bodies, and fire regimes, are widely monitored using spectral indicators obtained from multispectral remote sensing products. There is a great need for spectral index catalogues and computing tools as a result of the quick rise of suggested spectral indices. Unfortunately, the majority of these resources lack a standard Application Programming Interface, are out-of-date, closed-source, or are not linked to a catalogue. We now introduce 'VegSpecIndex', a standardised list of spectral indices for studies of the earth system. A thorough inventory of spectral indices is offered by 'VegSpecIndex' and is connected to an R library. For every spectral index, 'VegSpecIndex' provides a comprehensive collection of information, such as names, formulae, and source references. The user community may add more items to the catalogue, which will keep 'VegSpecIndex' up to date and allow for further scientific uses. Additionally, the R library makes it possible to apply the catalogue to actual data, which makes it easier to employ remote sensing resources effectively across a variety of Earth system domains.
