I was wondering how can we perform cloud detection.
(1) Is it the same process for all the sentinel products (S2-L2A and S2-L1C)?
(2) Is the cloud detection always performed at 80m resolution?
(3) Are cloud detection and cloud masking applied the same way on the data for different seasons, or do I need to adapt it to each season separately?

We suggest you use CLM/CLP bands, which are calulated using our s2cloudless mechanism.

Cloud Masks at Your Service

s2cloudless is an ML algorithm for computing cloud masks on Sentinel-2 data. We announce the availability of cloud masks via our services.

S2cloudness or how we processed 130 Bn km² of cloud masks in less than a day

Spoiler alert: in reality it took us about two years to do this but hey, the last step, processing of data, took much less than a day —…
