Thank you, I'm glad you appreciate it and I hope it will be useful for you!

No at the moment, I'm sorry. I have never worked on a multi-temporal
approach for cloud detection, one of the main goals of my PhD research is
indeed the definition of a procedure for the identification of clouds on a
single image.
Maybe it would take too long to integrate a new multi-temporal approach
into the project now.

I have already discussed the next steps of the project with my mentors and
we thought of integrating other algorithms for cloud detection (e.g. fmask)
into the module. I'm not able to evaluate if an existant multi-temporal
algorithm can be easily and quickly integrated into the module.
I will certainly read the links you suggested, but in the meantime, if you
have more precise ideas about it, please let me know..maybe it could be
easier than I expect! ;-)

I would like to know what you think, Moritz and Roberto, about the
integration of a multi-temporal approach in the module.

>
> · Changed some lines of the code according to the i.atcorr manual page

>
> · Added the automatic computation of mean target elevation from the input

> · Wrote and added the python script for retrieving the aerosol optical
> thickness (AOT) value from AERONET data using Py6S library [1]
>
> · Discussed with dev community about the need to write my own routine to
> retrieve and compute AOT at 550 nm avoiding too many dependencies [2]
>
> · Started writing my own routine to extract and compute AOT at 550 (one

> 2) What am I going to achieve for next week?

> · Finish writing the routine for AOT computation
