Image Compression1

ERDAS IMAGINE includes powerful image compression technologies that enable the creation of large files with many color bands. It features the world's fastest image compressor. The software provides different levels of compression capabilities depending on the tier, including support for formats like ECW, JPEG2000, and MrSID. Higher tiers provide increased file sizes, batch processing, and additional tools. Compression can significantly reduce file sizes, such as decreasing 10GB of data to only 500MB after mosaicking and compression.

IMAGE COMPRESSION IN ERDAS IMAGINE


ERDAS IMAGINE includes the fastest image compressor in the world
ERDAS IMAGINE® features the world’s leading image
compression technologies, integrating the preeminent
compression technologies previously existing in ERDAS
IMAGINE with those of ERDAS ER Mapper and ERDAS ECW/
JP2 SDK. This powerful compression engine enables creation
of up to 65,535 color bands (layers) for both ECW and
JPEG2000, and includes the ability to generate supported
NITF compression formats. Following is an outline of the
image compression capabilities available in each of tier of
ERDAS IMAGINE.
