Description / Abstract:
This Recommendation | International Standard defines a set of
lossless (bit-preserving) and lossy compression methods for coding
bi-level, continuous-tone grey-scale, palletized color, or
continuous-tone colour digital still images.
This Recommendation | International Standard:
– specifies decoding processes for converting compressed image
data to reconstructed image data;
– specifies a codestream syntax containing information for
interpreting the compressed image data;
– specifies a file format;
– provides guidance on encoding processes for converting source
image data to compressed image data;
– provides guidance on how to implement these processes in
practice.
