What do you look for in color enhanced imagery? Usually you look for high clouds or areas with a large amount of water vapor. In an infrared (IR) image cold clouds are high clouds, so the colors typically highlight the colder regions. In a water vapor image, white areas indicate moisture and dark areas indicate little or no moisture, so the colors typically highlight areas with large amounts of moisture. |
