JPEG 2000: Guide for Digital Libraries
Cultural heritage preservation, Lossy compression, JPEG 2000
The JPEG 2000 image compression standard is being used in many areas, such as for the cultural heritage preservation. Unlike the preceding JPEG method, JPEG 2000 compression is governed by a large number of parameters that control its effectiveness. Some of them are constrained by specific needs of particular use cases, others allow controlling (1) resource demands and (2) rate-distortion trade-off. The involved users usually choose these parameters according to some guidelines or analyses. However, inappropriate adjustment of parameters may easily lead to compression that is optimal neither from the perspective of (1) nor (2). This paper serves as a guide for the preservation of digital heritage in cultural heritage institutions, including libraries, archives, and museums.
