Figure 1. Characteristics of tri-variate color maps.

Figure 1

(A) 2D projection of the “equal lightness” color map. (B) 3D-CIELAB view of the anchor points: It can be seen that the color map is symmetric in the perceptual color space so that no distortions are introduced in the data. (C) Pixel color distribution in a test image that was created by using this color map. (D–F) Corresponding views for an alternative color map (“Full spectrum”). (G–I) Corresponding views for another alternative color map (“No green”).
