AI-driven Cloud Classification Atlas
These are 42 unique unsupervised AI-generated cloud classes that show distinct cloud texture and physica properties among different classes but homogeneous texture and properties within a same class. Following figures show 20 examples of True Color MODIS patch images for each cloud class. Note that our machine learning model is trained on near-infrared to thermal range of radiances. The true color images helps to understand how AICCA discriminates between textures among different classes.
These 42 cloud classes are distributed over unique spatial patterns.
