Colour enhancement. Remote-sensing systems that operate VIS-NIR [visible, near-infrared] range typically include three channels that approximate the response of the human eye, and afford the opportunity to construct RGB [red-green-blue] composite image that resembles natural colour. Unfortunately, when displayed, many such images appear to have mostly tones of gray … Contrast stretching may help, but the colours tend to be far less saturated than we are accustomed to when observing or photographing in the field. Besides trying standard stretches, [there is] another way to enhance natural colour … The results of enhancing images to bring out colour are highly dependent on the nature of landscape and the image measurements.  2, record 1, English, - colour%20enhancement

Pseudo-color enhancement can be regarded as the process of coloring gray-scale images, that is, giving different colors to regions with different gray-scale values in the original gray-scale image to distinguish them more clearly. The input of pseudo-color enhancement is a gray-scale image, and the output is a color image.  2, record 2, English, - pseudo%2Dcolour%20enhancement

La représentation d'une image en pseudo-couleurs est un processus un peu particulier qui ne concerne qu'une seule bande spectrale d'une image. Plutôt que de visualiser l'image en niveaux de gris, on attribue une couleur à chaque compte numérique. Cela permet de faciliter l'interprétation de l'image, l'œil humain ne permettant d'identifier de manière efficace qu'un nombre restreint de niveaux de gris.  2, record 2, French, - affichage%20en%20pseudo%2Dcouleurs

Color enhancement is a procedure where specified levels of energy—in this example, infrared energy—are given a specific colour. This makes locations with the desired energies easier to locate. In this example, shades of yellow and orange represent infrared energy emissions consistent with strong thunderstorms. This is because infrared energy is proportional to brightness temperature, and the highest cloud tops are colder than those at lower altitudes (the highest cloud tops are typically associated with the strongest thunderstorms).  1, record 3, English, - false%2Dcolour%20enhancement

L'affichage en fausses couleurs consiste à attribuer des couleurs fictives aux bandes spectrales. L'image résultante est dite «composition colorée» [(ou plus précisément, «composition en fausses couleurs»)] et se compose de trois plans de couleur rouge, vert et bleu (RGB). Par convention, on attribue la couleur rouge à la bande spectrale proche infrarouge, la couleur verte à la bande rouge et la couleur bleue à la bande verte.  1, record 3, French, - affichage%20en%20fausses%20couleurs
