What is Mrsid?

Mrsid is a database of image that is equipped with several different types of functionality. Properly known as Multi-Resources Smo-free image databases, Mrsid features serve the features of the viewer and the image compressor and as a set for raster graphics that have greater nature. The basic capabilities of Mrsid are made possible by configuration that occupies a number of small image tiles and creates one large image.

Lizardte, Mrsid was designed to make it easier to build these smaller images and without problems with integrity that are present in similar applications. Mrsid is able to combine smaller images in a way that makes a large image smooth. The final result is one firm image rather than a picture that somewhat resembles the appearance of an electronic puzzle of images.

Mrsid also deals with one of the long -term raster display problems, which is the time to open the file in the image browser. Image database has the ability to allow an endMU User decompress a raster image at once. Once one section is open, the user can mark another section for decompression, according to this pattern until the entire image appears.

Another problem associated with raster images is the amount of storage space that images require. Mrsid compression features also help minimize this problem. The image that is compressed with Mrsid takes significantly less storage space. Generally, the image in gray degrees that is compressed by Mrsid will have a 20: 1 ratio, while the color image can be compressed to a ratio of 50: 1.

The basic function of Mrsid is based on used mathematical algorithms. This approach supports the compression function and a general image browser. Because images are compressed and decommeremrsid is with full integrity and is ideal for use in several professions like photographerIE, management and storage of documents and medical imaging.
