Remote sensing (RS) multi‐spectral images are usually suffered from cloud and fog cover, which canlead to analysis troubles and application limitations. An ovel patch‐based dark channel prior dehaze method is proposed for solving this problem. An Atmospheric light (AL) curved surface hypothesis, instead of globally invariable plane, is applied to describe AL distribution, and apatch‐based approach is given to estimate curved surface. By using AL curved surface estimation, a new recovering model for RS multi‐spectral images is given to obtain dehaze‐free images. Comparative experiments are conducted, those results illustrate that the proposed method can produces visually impressive restored images, and the proposed method is superior to other relative methods interms of image quality evaluations.
