Due to global warming and effect of greenhouse gases, there is a certain changes observed in atmosphere, to
study those changes we need proper motion detection technique. There are many operational algorithms to detect
motion, all the algorithms use some form of pattern matching techniques. The proposed algorithm based on optical flow
is fundamentally different from other motion detection algorithms. An optical-flow based technique requires relatively
small displacements so this algorithm is best suited for Satellite application. In this paper we have covered the
background of optical flow algorithm. Some modification and Pre-processing had applied before implementing the
algorithm. For implementation of optical flow algorithm we have used lucas-kanade method. The rest of the paper is
devoted to our findings and a brief discussion about future scope of research.
