As far as I know, when clouds are removed, the patch below is considered a 'void'. </SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Thanks in advance.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Ben</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Tue, 08 Oct 2013 06:51:40 GMT BenLim 2013-10-08T06:51:40Z Regarding Cloud identification and removal https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/regarding-cloud-identification-and-removal/m-p/445348#M25437 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>Hi guys</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Just wondering, are there any methods that is able to remove clouds in a cloud-filled image and consequently exposing the surface underneath?

If you are working on LANDSAT image, you can merge SAR data with LANDSAT.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Also you can use cloud free image as a reference, but not much reliable.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Take a look at Automatic Cloud Cover Assessment algorithm.
