Pour le produit CanImage, deux types de rehaussements sont offerts : l'étalement linéaire et l'étalement par isopopulation ou adaptatif(basé sur la valeur médiane de l'histogramme de fréquence). Différentes commandes du logiciel PCI Geomatics sont employées pour réaliser le rehaussement. Durant le rehaussement(linéaire ou adaptatif), le premier et le dernier 2 % des pixels de l'image sont laissés de côté. Il s’agit d’une approche standard d’amélioration du contraste utilisée en télédétection/traitement numérique d’images qui permet d’éliminer les effets de bordure. 3, record 3, French, - %C3%A9tirement%20lin%C3%A9aire

(...) in a symmetrical frequency distribution, the values of mean, median and mode will coincide under the frequency curve; (...) When a frequency distribution is asymmetrical, the three values depart from each other. The more the mean departs from the mode, the greater the skewness. The frequency curve may skew either to the right side on the X scale (negatively skewed). 1, record 5, English, - skew
