Image Enhancement methods produce various sorts of problems, for example, unnatural impacts, over-improvement, and these downsides become increasingly unmistakable in improving dull Images. Histogram Equalization (HE) method is a straightforward and generally utilized Image contrast enhancement procedure. The fundamental task of HE is it changes the contrast of the Image. To perform this task, different HE techniques have been proposed. These techniques protect the brightness or contrast on the final Image that doesn't have a characteristic look. To overcome the drawbacks of HE, Enhanced Multi Histogram Equalization (EMHE) technique is proposed, which divide the Image into a few sub images and again these sub images are divided into sub-images, and traditional HE strategy is applied to each sub Image for getting better results. The improvement is brought about by repetitive data present in sub-pixel moves between relating Lightroom (LR) Images of a similar scene. The principal phase of the development incorporates Image enrollment of LR Images utilizing known parameters and geo-referencing methods for manufactured and genuine information individually. The proposed development of M-HE Images has been assessed on the LR Images obtained from satellite Image datasets to exhibit the clarity of the images by enhancing the contrast on the poor lighting images.

Digital image contrast enhancement methods that are based on histogram equalization technique are still useful for the use in consumer electronic products due to their simple implementation. However, almost all the suggested enhancement methods are using global processing technique, which does not emphasize local contents. Therefore, this paper proposes a new local image contrast enhancement method, based on histogram equalization technique, which not only enhances the contrast, but also increases the sharpness of the image. Besides, this method is also able to preserve the mean brightness of the image. In order to limit the noise amplification, this newly proposed method utilizes local mean-separation, and clipped histogram bins methodologies. Based on nine test color images and the benchmark with other three histogram equalization based methods, the proposed technique shows the best overall performance.
