Abstract

Cloud observation is an important factor for weather application and change of cloud base height plays a vital role in development of future weather system. Aim at requirement of cloud observation, a method on survey of cloud base height (CBH) is proposed based on stereo image. The main contents include image match and calculation of CBH which makes use of forward intersection of photogrammetry. It overcomes discontinuity, strong subjectivity and qualitative analysis of traditional eye observation. By application of National Day's weather safeguard, it tests that method of stereo imaging surveying is a way of direct measurement with better precision and is possible in technology also.
