- Description
- Image created using Multi-resolution Seamless Image Database (MrSID) compression, which was developed by Extensis for compressing large images; commonly used to partition and store large Geographic Information Systems (GIS) images.
- The Free Lossless Image Format File (FLIF) is a digital image file format designed to provide high-quality lossless compression for images. Unlike lossy formats like JPEG, FLIF preserves all the original image data without any degradation, ensuring that images are compressed without sacrificing any detail or clarity. This makes FLIF an ideal choice for applications where image quality is paramount, such as digital archives, professional photography, and graphic design. FLIF also incorporates advanced features such as support for high dynamic range (HDR).
