Normalization options

The following table describes the options available for normalization.

Normalization Description
None No changes are made to the image.
Hot Spot Remove hot spots from the image.
Adaptive Filter Balance the brightness and contrast by using a moving window. In the Adaptive Filter Size (% image) box, type the size of the filter window as a percentage of the size of the entire image. The adaptive filter size is a global setting, so one size applies to all the images with Adaptive Filter selected for Normalization.
Note: Because of the intensive processing required, Adaptive Filter is not dynamic. Also, any color-balancing effects on the normalized image will be displayed only when the image has been added to the output mosaic.
