This document discusses techniques for enhancing satellite images using linear contrast stretching and intensity level slicing. It begins with an abstract describing image enhancement and its purpose of improving visual appearance and aspects of images. It then provides background on sources of image degradation and the need for enhancement. The document describes two techniques - linear contrast stretching and intensity level slicing. It provides examples of their application and results, showing how they can increase contrast and emphasize certain intensity levels. In conclusion, it states that choice of enhancement technique depends on image characteristics and application, and computational cost is important for real-time use.
