A generalization of "image lossy data compression" recommendation

This paper deals with the encoding of high resolution images for remote sensing and geographic information systems applications. We are currently investigating the suitability of several still image coding techniques for this kind of applications. We present results for an adapted and modified version of the CCSDS-ILDC technique. In addition to evaluate its compression factor and quality of recovery with respect to the latest still image coding standard JPEG2000, we also consider whether this technique may fulfill the particular functionalities requested by remote sensing users
