Layered Estimation of Atmospheric Mesoscale Dynamics From Satellite Imagery

Abstract: Abstract-In this paper, we address the problem of estimating mesoscale dynamics of atmospheric layers from satellite image sequences. Due to the great deal of spatial and temporal distortions of cloud patterns and because of the sparse 3-D nature of cloud observations, standard dense-motion field-estimation techniques used in computer vision are not well adapted to satellite images. Relying on a physically sound vertical decomposition of the atmosphere into layers, we propose a dense-motion estimator dedicated… Show more

“…Liu et al (2015) characterized by systems with a range of motion greater than 10 km, therefore satellite imagery is particularly useful when coupled with computer vision programs in order to calculate cloud velocity. However, the techniques were not well adapted to the spatial displacement, thus a method incorporating a correlation method and the optical flow method were used to calculate the cloud flow more accurately (Hèas et al, 2007). Steps were taken further by utilizing the optical flow method with early storm warning systems such as the Short-range Warning Intense…”

“…By utilizing the generality of the cross-correlation method, particle movement can be found for relatively large movements as well as small displacement, low density, and larger particle size. through the use of a variational optical flow (Hèas et al, 2007). Hence, the need for a hybrid method is of high priority.…”

“…This model provides a valid invariance condition for altimetric imagery of compressible flows (Héas et al, 2007a) or for transmittance imagery of compressible fluids (Fitzpatrick, 1988). In cases where the assumption I ∝ ρdz holds, the ICE data model provides a way to take into account mass changes observed in the image plan by associating two-dimensional divergence to brightness variations and reads like equation (2).…”
