Dealing with Clouds in Satellite Time-Series Data
Step 1: Cloud Detection
We use the Sentinel-2 Scene Classification Layer (SCL) to automatically identify cloud-affected pixels, marking them as gaps to ensure accurate readings.
Step 2: Akima Interpolation
To fill these gaps, we apply Akima spline interpolation—a method that smoothly estimates the missing data while preserving natural variations.
By integrating advanced satellite imagery with state-of-the-art interpolation techniques, we deliver actionable, live EUA demand data that you can trade on with conviction.
