☁️ Cloud & Shadow Detection

Cloud and shadow masks are generated using OmniCloudMask, a deep learning ensemble trained on the CloudSEN12 dataset. The model processes three spectral bands (Red, Green, Near-Infrared) from Sentinel-2 imagery to classify pixels as clear, cloud, or shadow, then applies morphological post-processing to remove noise and smooth boundaries.
