Results from Thermal and Near-infrared Sensor for Carbon Observation-Cloud and Aerosol Imager (TANSO-CAI) cloud screening are necessary for the retrieval of CO2 and CH4 gas concentrations for GOSAT TANSO-Fourier Transform Spectrometer (FTS) observations. In this study, TANSO-CAI cloud flag data were compared with ground-based cloud data collected by an all-sky imager (ASI) over Beijing from June 2009 to May 2012 to examine the data quality. The results showed that the CAI has an obvious cloudy tendency bias over Beijing, especially in winter. The main reason might be that heavy aerosols in the sky are incorrectly determined as cloudy pixels by the CAI algorithm. Results also showed that the CAI algorithm sometimes neglects some high thin cirrus cloud over this area.展开更多
全天相机云图是监测云量的重要手段,提出了一种新的云量测量量化指标——云分布密度(Cloud Distribution Density of ASI Images,ASICDD),并基于该指标建立全天相机云图自动分类系统。首先对云图进行去噪,利用最大类间方差法(Otsu)分割...全天相机云图是监测云量的重要手段,提出了一种新的云量测量量化指标——云分布密度(Cloud Distribution Density of ASI Images,ASICDD),并基于该指标建立全天相机云图自动分类系统。首先对云图进行去噪,利用最大类间方差法(Otsu)分割云区域;然后对去除背景的云区域图像使用云分布密度计算云量;最后使用4种传统的分类器(支持向量机、K最近邻、决策树和随机森林)根据计算数值进行自动分类并评估各分类器的性能。结果表明,云分布密度可作为评判全天相机云图云量的数值指标;基于云分布密度建立的云图自动分类系统实现了较高的识别准确率,其中随机森林法的分类效果最好,各类云图的识别准确率达到95%以上。展开更多
