Popis: An analysis technique for Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite-VISSR (Visible and Infrared Spin Scan Radiometer) Atmospheric Sounder (GOES-VAS) sounder data was developed to extract cloud and clear radiance information. This technique employed many of the concepts used in the International Satellite Cloud Climatology Project (ISCCP) such as spatial and time comparisons of neighboring satellite pixels. It improved upon the previous studies that used VAS data by using all available VAS data at full time and space resolution. The previous studies utilized
