摘要
We have developed a methodology to enhance an infrared-based high resolution rainfall retrieval algorithm by intelligently calibrating the rainfall estimates using space-based observations. Our approach involves the following four steps: 1) segmentation of infrared cloud images into patches; 2) feature extraction using a wavelet-based method; 3) clustering and classification of cloud patches; and 4) dynamic application of brightness temperature (Tb) and rain rate relationships, derived using satellite observations. The results show that using wavelet features along with other features increase the performance of rainfall estimate in terms of quantitative rain/no rain area estimates. In addition, using lightning data as a feature improves the estimates as well.
