Whole sky imager and cloud movement prediction

Abstract

The primary goal of my project is to configure, capture whole-sky imagers according to the WAHRSIS 6 and carry out image processing to run cloud movement prediction. This report will provide the necessary information regarding the fundamentals, components and various methods and results of image processing from the whole-sky imagers project. This report will be split into five parts, introduction of whole sky imagers, WAHRSIS 6 and the aim of the project. The following section will be showcasing the hardware and software components. Afterwards, an in-depth view of the steps and methods of running the software. Then, the results of the images captured and image processing for cloud analysis will be shown. Finally, the evaluations from the project followed by a conclusion of the project and what I have learned throughout the duration of the project.
