- 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.
- A JPEG file is an image saved in a compressed graphic format standardized by the Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG). It supports up to 24-bit color and is compressed using lossy compression, which may noticeably reduce the image quality if high amounts of compression are used. JPEG files are commonly used for storing digital photos and web graphics.
