Table 9.

Accuracy indicators A, $A_{\mathrm{Clear}}$ and $A_{\mathrm{Cloudy}}$ of classification methods of Section 3 when validation is made on the full dataset and classifications are separate for each climatic zone of Section 2.6. Percentage values are reported for the entire dataset (row Global) and for the different climatic zones.
