Satellite Image Enhancement Using Histogram Equalization
DOI:
https://doi.org/10.30564/ese.v5i1.5234Abstract
Image enhancement is an indispensable technique in improving the quality, brightness, contrast and clarity of satellite images. The object that appears in images and variation caused by shadow, occlusion, camouflage in satellite images are the fundamental challenges posed by image enhancement techniques. The aim of this research work was to enhance satellite images of Sambisa using histogram equalization technique. MATLAB 2021 was used to implement the experiment. The results show that histogram equalization method has an excellent processing effect and it improved the brightness, contrast and clarity of the images as compared original images and the enhanced images.
