The vegetation index is a mapping of the categorial variable [[Definition:VegetationTypeCode | vegetation type code]], to a nominal variable. The vegetation index is used as one of the explanatory in the Whole-stand growth model (see page 39 in the [http://heurekaslu.org/mw/images/9/93/Heureka_prognossystem_(Elfving_rapportutkast).pdf "Growth modelling in Heureka" document]).

The climate model modifies the vegetation index. The vegetation index increases when the climate model predicts increased growth. The vegetation index is updated in each projection period.
