Description : Imaging server system for web-based streamed viewing and zooming of ultra high-resolution images
IIPImage is an advanced high-performance feature-rich imaging server
system for web-based streamed viewing and zooming of ultra
high-resolution images. It is designed to be fast and
bandwidth-efficient with low processor and memory requirements. The
system can comfortably handle gigapixel size images as well as advanced
image features such as both 8 and 16 bit depths, CIELAB colorimetric
images and scientific imagery such as multispectral images.
Streaming is tile-based, making it possible to view, navigate and zoom
in real-time around gigapixel size images that would be impossible to
download and manipulate on the local machine. It also makes the system
very scalable as the number of image tile downloads will remain the same
regardless of the size of the source image.
Source images can be in either TIFF or JPEG2000 format. Whole images or
regions within images can also be rapidly and dynamically resized and
exported by the server from a single source image without the need to
store multiple files in various sizes.
