cloud cover fraction every 10 minutes

2016-09-01 → 2024-10-06 arctic-station Greenland Ecosystem Monitoring CC BY-SA 4.0

Fractional cloud cover detected from a hemispheric optical camera on the ground using the algorithm by Wacker et al. (2015). An accompanying dataset of cloud cover maps is available as 'cloud cover map every 10 minutes.'. The maps are projected into geographical coordinates assuming the cloud layer elevation given in the column 'cloud_level'. This dataset is being developed in collaboration between ClimateBasis Disko and the Remote Sensing and Modeling Initiative. See https://anon.erda.au.dk/share_redirect/aiveepToLn/Remote%20Sensing%20and%20Modelling/RemoteSensingProducts/GEMClouds/Cloud%20processing.pdf for a more detailed description of the dataset.
