Dear colleagues, I would like to share an open-access preprint of my work on an empirical cloud masking approach for MODIS daytime imagery: Empirical Cloud Mask Algorithm (ECMA): A robust multi-spectral approach for cloud detection in optical remote sensing imagery The method explores a threshold-fr...

NASA's atmospheric science team using MODIS, have developed their own standard cloud mask product that can be used to detect the presence of clouds over a given area. The cloud mask product however, has several significant drawbacks. For example, the mask is incapable of discriminating effectively b...
