Radiometric improvements ... increase the capacity to observe and recognise objects on the image. Essentially, two processes are applied for this purpose. The first is the focusing of the image, in order to increase its definition, reduce noise and emphasize the linear elements. The second process is the enhancement of local contrast in the range of greys, so that the distribution of the values of an area changes in order to occupy a larger part of the possible greys in accordance with its surroundings. 3, record 1, English, - radiometric%20improvement
