The process of identifying and evaluating of the soil moisture indicator was improved by way of applying processing of multi-spectral aerospace images and conducting mathematical calculations on the data of spectral brightness of channels. Usage of the normalized index of NWI which is calculated on data from multi-spectral aerospace imaging on the basis of normalized difference of the spectral reflection in short-wave infrared spectral band is justified. Efficiency of this index in application to soil moisture evaluation for solving agrotechnical problems is proved.
