Analysis of cloudy structures evolution on meteorological satellite acquisitions
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper concerns the characterization of clouds on meteorological satellite image sequences through points trajectories. These temporal curves can be computed from the result of motion estimation over image sequences. The study includes a representation method for the trajectories, which is based on normalized Fourier modules. The original trajectories can be compared independently of their localization, orientation and scale. We then determine that the information contained in these representation vectors is relevant for discrimination and classification of cloudy structures on satellite data. Results addressing METEOSAT infrared data are analyzed and displayed throughout the paper.

Net Radiation Estimated from the FY-2D Data over the Source Region of the Yellow River
Numerous studies have developed algorithms for estimating the net radiation by satellite remote sensing data obtained under clear sky conditions using polar orbiting meteorological satellite. However, estimating net radiation under cloudy sky conditions using geostationary meteorological satellites with remote sensing sensors remains a significant challenge. In this paper, we developed algorith...
متن کاملContinuous Tracking of Structures from an Image Sequence
The poster describes an innovative method to simultaneously estimate motion and track a structure on an image sequence. To process noisy images, assumptions on dynamics should be involved. Consequently, the method relies on the dynamics equations of the studied physical system. The issue of tracking a structure has been largely studied in the image processing literature, see Yilmaz et al. [1]. ...
متن کاملEstimation of Actual Evapotranspiration using Remote Sensing data
Estimation of actual evapotranspiration (AET) and its spatial distribution are important to understanding of catchment hydrology. The AET is driven by net energy available to evaporate water from soil and vegetation surfaces, and to transpirate water from vegetation. However, estimating AET is difficult as the evapotranspiration process involves complex physical and biological processes. It is ...
متن کاملTemporal interpolation of global surface skin temperature diurnal cycle over land under clear and cloudy conditions
[1] The surface skin temperature is a key parameter at the land-atmosphere interface. An accurate description of its diurnal cycle would not only help estimate the energy exchanges at the interface, it would also enable an analysis of the global surface skin diurnal cycle and its variability within the last 20 years. This study is based on the 3-hourly surface skin temperature estimated by the ...
