Abstract

This paper studies an approach to solve the problem of color purification for images of scanned paper maps in an experimental manner. The mathematical foundation of the approach is briefly outlined. A computationally feasible algorithm is then proposed. This algorithm is tested through real life testing. Results indicate that this approach not only restores and purifies colors of the map digitally. It compresses the data of the image files too.
