Abstract

An apparatus for image conversion includes a processor configured to classify a reference region representing a predetermined feature into a shadowed region and an unshadowed region, the reference region being in an aerial image represented in RGB color space; determine a tone correction factor so that a difference between an average luminance of the shadowed region and an average luminance of the unshadowed region in the aerial image represented in predetermined color space to which the color space of the aerial image is converted from RGB color space is less than a difference between an average luminance of the shadowed region and an average luminance of the unshadowed region represented in RGB color space; correct tones of the aerial image with the tone correction factor; and convert the color space of the aerial image from RGB color space to the predetermined color space to generate a color conversion image.
