Image File Data Organization and Data Transfer Guide
(This is how Imaging Services formats and organizes data to share with project partners.)
Description of files
- Image files are encoded in compliance with the JPEG2000 standard
- Data compression: irreversible 9-7 wavelet transform for lossy compression, or reversible 5-3 wavelet transform for lossless compression.
- Photometric interpretation:
- RGB (color), 8-bits per channel, embedded sRGB ICC profile.
- Grayscale, 8 or 16-bits per channel.
- Structural metadata files (optional) conform to the METS standard and Harvard's METS profile for page-turned objects.
- MARC record files (optional) are in MarcXML or MODS format.
- Packaging tag files generated by the packaging application (Bagit) describe the package.
