MODEL
In order to test the validity of our algorithms we are in the process of creating a MATLAB model with the data populated from weather satellite infrared images. In order to create this model we plan on transforming the rectangular images into a matrix of polar coordinates representing the surface of the Earth from a latitude of 60 degrees north to 60 degrees south. Next we are going to simulate the location of the satellite in space by providing latitude, longitude, altitude, and orientation. We will then take an image from this location and run them through our algorithms. Once this is working we hope to be able to simulate the movement of the satellite and take a series of images similar to what will be happening in space.
