Cloud Cover
Spectral Domain
Spectral signature must be bright (visible band) and cold (thermal
band) enough, i.e., greater than thresholds.
Prevalent technique since 1965.
Spatial Domain
Texture features are used in a pattern recognition system.
Requires more training data and are processor intensive.
Less commonly used.

Cloud Cover
Problem
Multiple image channels available.
Cannot fit all channel into satellite memory.
Which is best for cloud detection?
Solution
Use a single channel or weighted
combination.
Evaluate different combination techniques
from cloud detection literature.
Novel application of speech processing
method: HDA.

Bicepstrum
Spectral subtraction pre- and
post-processing.
Novel
Spectral subtraction combined with
power spectrum angular smoothing.
22 / 31
Performance acceptable in
noiseless conditions.
Cepstral method
very sensitive.
Novel angular smoothing has
best performance.
