Summary:The main goal of this paper is to present the automatic pipeline designed at IGN-France to produce automatic large-scale cloud-free orthomosaics from multiple Spot 6/7 and Pléiades-HR satellite images. Our pipeline is composed of three steps: the radiometric harmonisation of satellite images, the automatic production of cloud masks and the stitching procedure. Our evaluation shows that our pipeline is capable to remove all clouds in a given scene and produce seamless orthomosaics.
