At the University of
Southern California we have historically used MrSID to deliver large compressed
images over the Web. These are normally stored as tiffs with SID
renditions subsequently derived from the tiffs.
We are considering
switching to an alternative compression because of intermittent problems with
the SIDs. One technology we're considering switching to is
jpeg-2000.
We would be most
appreciative if we could hear from others out there with regard to preferred
compression formats for delivery of still images on the Web -- particularly if
you are using jpeg-2000.
Thanks.
