voiçi le contexte pour ''colorimetri color value'' scanning (46) an image (60) of a scene on a medium (100) to produce an electronic image;

determining (50) a set of at least one region of interest (52) in the electronic image using a set of at least one predetermined criterion (77) to make spectral measurements;
extracting scanned color values in the at least one region of interest (52);
performing (64) at least one spectral color value measurement to provide at least one measured colorimetric color value (95) of the at least one region of interest (52) with a sensor (2) interacting logically with a scanning device (18); and
deriving (66,68,70,72) a scanner color correction that best suits the m

What is important here... ...is to know whether a distinction is being made with any other kind of colour value?

On the face of it, 'colorimetric colour value' is a pleonasm, since when talking about 'colour values' one is usually in a context of colorimetry.

However, the term might have been introduced specifically in order to differentiate from some other kind of colour value, in which case it is of course not redundant at all!

In printing, displays, etc. colours are referred to all sorts of 'colour spaces' — and it is conceivable that the 'colorimetric' colour space is being regarded as different from others.

If no specific distinction is being made here, then I would consider it as simply 'colour value'.

donc c'est un procédé de correction de couleurs d'un scanner qui balaie une image pour obtenir une image électronique, et ensuite qui extrait des valeurs chromatiques et "colrimetric color value"

Pouvez-vous nous donner le contexte de l'un et de l'autre ?
