### Introduction

ampycloud refers to both this Python package and the algorithm at its core, designed to
characterize cloud layers (i.e. height and sky coverage fraction) using ceilometer measurements
 (i.e. automatic cloud base *hits* measurements), and derive the corresponding METAR-like message.
