Synopsis
The book leads the reader through a step-by-step workflow for processing images to correct defects and enhance the details for maximum visibility and presentation, and to isolate features for measurement of structural, object or geometric information in the images, using Adobe Photoshop and commercially available plugins. Intended for college students, forensic technicians, research scientists, and others who rely upon images as a source of information, the text includes procedures appropriate for light and electron microscopy, crime scene photographs, surveillance video, and other applications. The author is a retired university professor who has taught thousands of students these methods in a 50-year career, has written several widely used reference and textbooks on the subject, and is frequently called upon as an expert witness. This text is an outgrowth of his teaching, and uses a rich set of example images to illustrate the various algorithms that are described and applied.
