Abstract:<p>Ground-based remote sensing of wind is currently dominated by radar profilers and wind lidars, which deliver profiles of excellent quality and high update rates. Unfortunately, the relative high costs of these devices have so far strongly limited their geographical coverage. On the other hand, infrared all-sky imagers are more affordable instruments, that can provide valuable information at day and night time, not only about cloud cover, but also about wind via computer vision techniques.
