Paper Abstract

Focusing on downward-looking infrared cloud images, we propose a cloud detection and thin clouds removal algorithm based on the feature judgement. This algorithm determines whether infrared image contains clouds or not by texture feature extraction, segments the suspected cloud regions and determines the cloud region using a voting system based on multi-feature quantitative analysis. Finally, we enhance image and remove the cloud interference using the combination of space and frequency domain. Test results show this algorithm has good practicability and accuracy, which improves the automation and intelligence of remote sensing information processing and application.
