Performing Batch Color Balancing

To perform color balancing for many images at a time, you must first set the color balancing corrections that you want to apply to a single image. Then, you can apply those corrections to all the remaining images.

  1. Add all the images that you want to color balance to the Job List.
  2. Select one of the images from the Job List.
  3. Click the Color Balance button on the toolbar.

    The Color Balance Manager appears.

  4. From the Band drop-down list select a band or Intensity.

    For grayscale images, only one band is available. Select an individual band to modify it individually or select intensity to modify all bands.

  5. Make changes to histogram values by entering new values into the Min, Max and Gamma fields, or click and drag the slider controls below the histogram.
  6. Click OK.
  7. Select the remaining images that you want to color balance from the Job List. You can hold the Shift key to select a range of images.
  8. In the Automatic Corrections panel, select Duplicate job parameters from the drop-down.

    The first image to which you applied color balancing corrections appears in a list below the drop-down.

    NOTE: The list only displays images to which you have applied color balancing corrections, and which have the same number of bands and the same data type as the images that you selected in the Job List. Additionally, the list does not display mosaics to which you have applied corrections, only single images.

  9. Click the first image to which you applied color balancing corrections.
  10. Click Apply Corrections.
  11. Click OK.
  12. Click a blank section in the Job List to ensure that no jobs are selected.
  13. Click Run All Jobs.
