i.water --help

i.water ndvi=name [albedo=name] [modref7=name] output=name [--overwrite] [--help] [--verbose] [--quiet] [--ui]

Flags:

--overwrite: Allow output files to overwrite existing files
--help: Print usage summary
--verbose: Verbose module output
--quiet: Quiet module output
--ui: Force launching GUI dialog

Parameters:

ndvi=name [required]: Name of the NDVI layer [-]
albedo=name: Name of the Albedo layer [-]
modref7=name: Name of the Modis surface reflectance band 7 layer [-]
output=name [required]: Name of the output water layer [0/1]

DESCRIPTION

i.water calculates a water layer after Xiao et al (2005) and Roy et al (2005). If input is albedo and ndvi, it will process in generic mode. If input is ndvi and MODIS Band 7 reflectance, it will process in MODIS mode.
