Abstract :
This paper describes the algorithm created to produce realistic cloudy aerial images using pictures of clouds taken from ground level. After performing a one-time manual operation, this otherwise autonomous algorithm produces a single aerial image overlaid with cloud imagery that is capable of retaining the natural transparency of the clouds.
