Determination of clouds motion characteristics in the atmosphere with lidar and digital cameras
Alexey I. Elizarov, Sergey V. Nasonov · Proceedings of SPIE, the International Society for Optical Engineering/Proceedings of SPIE · 2014
This article gives a short overview to the modified algorithm of cloud fields images processing generated by digital camera. The article shows that the simultaneous measurement of the low bound of clouds with LIDAR allows to determine the direction and speed of the clouds movement at the LIDAR installation point. Also the articles provides the example of the clouds speed estimation based on experimental data.
