AI Cloud Detection for GOES Weather Satellite Images on a Raspberry Pi
Over on his blog account at Hackser.io Justin Lutz has uploaded an article describing how he uses AI object detection to automatically detect clouds on weather satellite images that he's downloaded from GOES satellites via an RTL-SDR.
Lutz's blog post first describes and shows his RTL-SDR GOES reception setup. Then, it explains how he used Edge Impulse on his Raspberry Pi 4 to create an AI model that automatically detects the clouds in the image.
The process begins by importing 100 images into Edge Impulse, manually labelling the clouds in each image, training the model, and testing it. The result was an average detection accuracy of 90%.
