Snow/Cloud Discrimination with Multispectral Satellite Measurements

An algorithm is developed and evaluated for discriminating between clouds, snow-covered land and snowfree land in satellite image data. The multispectral technique uses daytime images of NOAA AVHRR channels 1 (0.63 μm), 3 (3.7 μm), and 4 11.0 (μm). eflectance is derived for channel 3 by using the ch...
