- Description
- Ptiff is a type of image file that is created by compressing a TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) image using a wavelet-based encoding, known as pyramidal encoding. This type of file can store both lossy and lossless compressed images and is often used for storing large-scale images such as aerial photographs or medical images.
- The JPEG 2000 Code Stream (j2c) file format is a type of image file format that is part of the JPEG 2000 family of image standards. This format is specifically designed for encoding images in a highly efficient manner, allowing for both lossless (exact reproduction) and lossy (approximate) compression. The j2c format focuses on the core coding stream of JPEG 2000 images, representing the encoded image data without additional metadata or structure.
