- Description: "Compression and Progressive Transmission of Digital Images".
Ftp: stsci.edu:software/hcompress (static version of compression scheme) An image
transmission system will be developed that sends images incrementally, allowing the
user to reconstruct, view, and optionally reject an image as it arrives rather than
waiting for the whole image. This will be a particularly important capability for
general public and educational access to digital images through low-bandwidth connections
to the Internet. The effect of the process is to remove noise from the image until
late in the transmission. High contrast areas are sent first. After about 1% - 1.5%
of the image has been transmitted, the image appears very close to the original.
Transmission continues, if not interrupted, to a complete, lossless copy of the original.
