Tonemapping is an adaptive postprocessing technique, usually applied through a plugin or stand alone application which creates areas of local contrast in the image, thereby giving the impression of a much greater dynamic range.

Tonemapping can be used as a form of exposure correction, or as a tool for colour enhancement or colour manipulation.

Tonemapping is also generally employed for the display of HDR images.

Software applications which provide tonemapping include:

  • Photomatix tonemapping
  • Hydra
