Visibility estimated in foggy road traffic based on atmospheric scattering model

Abstract

In road traffic, there exists foggy condition very often. The foggy affects traffic efficiency, even leads to traffic accidents. So it is important to measure the visibility in foggy road traffic.With this problem, two foggy estimated algorithms are proposed in this paper. In first algorithm, two iamges are used to estimate visibility togather with Atmospheric Scattering Model.The two image must be in same scene and different weather condition.The second algrithm is used one foggy image to estimate the visibility. But there are two key points in the scene,and these points have similar illuminate property.Experments show that these algrithms are effective.
