摘要：Himawari-8 satellite cloud observation data covers all areas of Indonesia. The cloud observation data can be used for observations of current weather conditions and short-term predictions. This paper reports the verification method of Himawari-8 Observation Data using Cloud Optical Thickness (COT) and compared to Cloud Image Energy. The verification test was carried out to determine the accuracy of Himawari-8's observations. COT data were verified using energy data from the observation image of the time-lapse camera. First, the time-lapse camera captures and classifies the cloud image. Subsequently, the energy of each image frame was calculated and re-grouped the result based on the energy to determine the type of the cloud. The results show that there is a positive correlation between COT and low energy values with cumulonimbus cloud detection, on the contrary for Cirrus-cloud type. However, the data requires a more accurate observation method to obtain data from cloud images on the Himawari-8 satellite, specifically for regions with a small spatial size of 4 km and thin clouds in the lower layer.
