Short summary
This study investigates a method for 24 h cloud cover calculation using a camera-based imager and supervised machine learning methods. The cloud cover is calculated by learning the statistical characteristics of the ratio, difference, and luminance using RGB channels of the image with a machine learning model. The proposed approach is suitable for nowcasting because it has higher learning and prediction speed than the method in which the many pixels of a 2D image are learned.
