Improvement and expansion of the Fmask algorithm: cloud, cloud shadow, and snow detection for Landsats 4–7, 8, and Sentinel 2 images
TL;DR: In this article, a new cirrus band was introduced for detecting clouds, especially for thin cirrus clouds, and a new version of the Fmask algorithm was developed for use with Landsat 8 images.

TL;DR: The Landsat Operational Land Imager (OLI) has 5 to 10 times better signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs) in all spectral bands than previous Landsat instruments and performance was shown to be a strong function of SNR with substantial increase in performance as SNR increased.
