Short summary
This work presents an automated method to create cloud height maps in near real time using a network of 20 ground-based sky cameras in Valladolid, Spain. By comparing simultaneous images from different locations, the system estimates cloud base and top heights every few minutes over a large area with 50 m resolution. The results agree well with satellite and ceilometer measurements, showing that low-cost camera networks can improve continuous cloud monitoring for weather and climate studies.
