Shoreline detection, in Tanjung Piai, Malaysia by improving the low brightness and contrast of SPOT-5 images using the NIR-HE method
Satellite images taken in hazy conditions tend to have low brightness and contrast, and to address this problem, a simple and optimised method using near-infrared (NIR) histogram equalisation has been proposed, in order to improve the brightness and contrast of the SPOT-5 images taken by satellite....
