Automatic Tracking and Characterization of Cumulonimbus Clouds from FY-2C Geostationary Meteorological Satellite Images

This paper presents an automated method to track cumulonimbus (Cb) clouds based on cloud classification and characterizes Cb behavior from FengYun-2C (FY-2C). First, a seeded region growing (SRG) algorithm is used with artificial neural network (ANN) cloud classification as preprocessing to identify...
