Comparisons between VIIRS cloud mask performance results from manually generated cloud masks of VIIRS imagery and CALIOP-VIIRS match-ups

International Journal of Remote Sensing, 2014
Binary cloud masks generated from the manual interpretation of imagery serve as one source of truth data in the evaluation of the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) cloud mask (VCM) algorithm in the Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership (S-NPP) Calibration/Validation (CalVal) Program of the Joint Polar Satellite System (JPSS).
