LizardTech delivers state-of-the-art technology for managing and distributing massive, high-resolution digital content.
Since 1992, government and non-government organizations alike have benefited from the company's software products and technologies. LizardTech pioneered MrSID® (Multiresolution Seamless Image Database), a powerful wavelet-based image encoder, viewer, and file format built for rapid Internet distribution of geospatial imagery.
LizardTech personnel attending the annual ESRI User Conference enjoy an ongoing dialog with customers, partners and new industry friends about how our products can best serve the geospatial community. This year LizardTech will demonstrate GeoExpress 5.0 with unlimited JPEG 2000 and MrSID encoding in booth #2019.
GeoExpress offers the benefits of both MrSID technology and ISO standard JPEG 2000 without any compromise in image quality. Besides an increasingly flexible set of image management tools and client, server, and network-based options, GeoExpress provides lossless encoding, preserving images with pixel-for-pixel fidelity in a compressed format easily reusable in downstream applications.
The GeoExpress Software Development Kits (SDKs) enable developers to integrate MrSID and JPEG 2000 encoding and decoding functionality into their applications. The GeoExpress SDKs support lossless and area of interest encoding and WKT-based spatial reference system metadata.
