Short summary
A low-cost ground station using commercial infrared sensors compared Sentinel-5P cloud fraction retrievals in pre-Alpine Bavaria, Germany. Agreement was strong (R = 0.879, N = 27 after quality filtering). The method functions as a three-state classifier (clear / partly cloudy / overcast). Citizen science sensor networks offer a scalable approach to screen satellite data quality in regions lacking professional monitoring.
