Abstract
Provided are a device and a method of generating and outputting a corrected image including high-precision vegetation index values such as NDVI values in a vegetation portion region on the basis of an image in which a vegetation portion and a soil portion coexist. The device includes a vegetation index value set image correcting section that generates a corrected image of a vegetation index value set image in which a vegetation index value such as an NDVI value is set as a pixel value. The vegetation index value set image correcting section calculates, for each of pixels constituting the vegetation index value set image, an average pixel value of the pixel and neighboring pixels, generates an averaged image in which the calculated average pixel values are set, generates a binarized image by binarizing a difference image between the vegetation index value set image and the averaged image in accordance with a specified threshold, and generates, as the corrected image of the vegetation index value set image, a multiplication image by multiplying the vegetation index value set image and the binarized image.
