Abstract

FY-2C is a geo-stationary orbiting meteorological satellite designed by China independently. Based on statistical and spectral analysis of FY-2C data, this paper proposed a new cloud detection index operating accurately and quickly in spite of the low spatial resolution few spectral information. The diversity and sensitivity of cloud for each of the 4 bands of FY-2C data is also analyzed in this paper. The Infrared Red band 1, band 3 is found to be most suitable for cloud detection due to their spectral sensitivity of cloud.
