Short summary
In this paper the representativeness of ground-based cloud observatories and their comparability to satellite data and weather prediction models is examined. It is performed by analysing correlation of time series of SEVIRI pixels. The representativeness strongly depends on the used channels and ranges between 1km and over 20km.
