Abstract: The aim of this study is to development of algorithm for assessment of cloud properties in the atmosphere using satellite data. The work began by analyzing cloud cover in Thailand. To reduce possible confusion between high clouds and precipitation-causing clouds, the high clouds were removed using the spectral method based on the a priori knowledge-based threshold. This study successful development of algorithm for assessment of cloud properties in the atmosphere using satellite data, which will be use for early warnings of precipitation-causing clouds in Thailand.
Keywords: Development of Algorithm, Satellite Data, a Priori Knowledge-Based Threshold.

Scope of the Article: Web Algorithms
