Cloud Mask - MTG - 0 degreeThe central aim of the cloud mask (CLM) product is to identify cloudy and cloud free
FCI Level 1c pixels with high confidence. The product also provides information on
the presence of snow/sea ice, volcanic ash and dust. This information is crucial both
for spatiotemporal analyses of the cloud coverage and for the subsequent retrieval
of other meteorological products that are only valid for cloudy (e.g. cloud properties)
or clear pixels (e.g. clear sky reflectance maps or global instability indices). The
algorithm is based on multispectral threshold techniques applied to each pixel of
the image. CLM is available in netCDF and GRIB format, every 10 minutes, at a spatial
resolution of 2 km at nadir.
