Energy-based cloud detection in multispectral images based on the SVM technique

TL;DR: The experimental results showed that the proposed method provides an excellent average overall accuracy for thick and thin clouds in a complex background of forests, harbours, snow and mountains.

Quantifying drought effects in Central European grasslands through regression-based unmixing of intra-annual Sentinel-2 time series

TL;DR: In this paper , a regression-based unmixing framework was used to quantify the impact of severe droughts on grasslands in Central Europe in 2018 and 2019 using the Sentinel-2-based intra-annual time series.

Development of a New Phenology Algorithm for Fine Mapping of Cropping Intensity in Complex Planting Areas Using Sentinel-2 and Google Earth Engine

TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper used all Sentinel-2 images on the Google Earth Engine cloud platform, and constructed an improved peak point detection method to extract the cropping intensity of a heterogeneous planting area combined with crop phenology.

Edyn: Dynamic Signaling of Changes to Forests Using Exponentially Weighted Moving Average Charts

TL;DR: An algorithm called Edyn is introduced, which inputs a time series of residuals from harmonic regression into a control chart to signal low-magnitude, consistent deviations from the curve as disturbances, and EWMACD was found to have lower omission error rates for a category of subtle changes over long periods.

A Landsat surface reflectance dataset for North America, 1990-2000

TL;DR: Initial comparisons with ground-based optical thickness measurements and simultaneously acquired MODIS imagery indicate comparable uncertainty in Landsat surface reflectance compared to the standard MODIS reflectance product.
Journal ArticleDOI

Discriminating clear sky from clouds with MODIS

TL;DR: The MODIS cloud mask algorithm as discussed by the authors uses several cloud detection tests to indicate a level of confidence that the MEDIS is observing clear skies, which is ancillary input to MEDIS land, ocean, and atmosphere science algorithms to suggest processing options.

Calculation of radiative fluxes from the surface to top of atmosphere based on ISCCP and other global data sets: Refinements of the radiative transfer model and the input data

TL;DR: Zhang et al. as discussed by the authors used a more advanced NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) radiative transfer model and improved ISCCP cloud climatology and ancillary data sets.

Spectral signature of alpine snow cover from the Landsat Thematic Mapper.

TL;DR: In this article, the spectral signatures of the Landsat TM images of the Sierra Nevada were analyzed to distinguish several classes of snow from other surface covers, and a number of TM images were used for automatic analysis of alpine snow cover.
