Development of a Mid-Infrared Sea and Lake Ice Index (MISI) Using the GOES Imager

An automated ice-mapping algorithm has been developed and evaluated using data from the GOES-13 imager. The approach includes cloud-free image compositing as well as image classification using spectral criteria. The algorithm uses an alternative snow index to the Normalized Difference Snow Index (ND...
