Abstract
Improvements made to the cloud removal method for landsat MSS images proposed by O.R. Mitchell are presented. A more reasonable mathematical model for the cloud effect has been derived, and a two-stage filtering scheme based on this new model has been proposed. A filtering and a 3-D processing method for landsat MSS image noise cleaning has been developed to implement the scheme. A preliminary experiment shows promising results.
