The LEADTOOLS JPIP (JPEG 2000 Interactive Protocol) Module supports interactive streaming of large images and associated image data using the minimum possible bandwidth. It is especially well-suited to using internet connections for viewing and manipulating large medical, geospatial, and very-high-resolution camera images stored on remote servers. It is an implementation of the JPEG2000, part 9 standard (ISO/IEC 15444-9), including both meta-data and code-stream elements.
LEADTOOLS JPIP client/server architecture allows storage of very large, compressed JPEG2000 images at the server, plus transmission of image resolution, quality and region of interest (ROI) as specified by a client. This allows client applications to interact with a stored image without transmitting the entire image, or decoding the entire image code-stream. The server and client components include a number of options for controlling this image streaming and decoding.
The LEADTOOLS JPIP SDK comprises high level components that developers can easily plug into enterprise client/server applications, allowing them to immediately start streaming high-resolution images under low HTTP bandwidth connections.
Key Features:
-
Fast, flexible code updates: LEAD's managed code does not depend on third-party libraries.
-
Optimizes network efficiency through progressive image transmission, without sending redundant data.
-
Fast image viewing through progressive decoding of images resolutions, tiles, and components.
-
Suitable for browsing lossless high-resolution medical and geospatial images.
-
Supports JPEG2000 code-streams and multiple file formats (J2K, JP2 and JPX).
-
Supports streaming over HTTP V1.1 transport protocol
Server Component:
-
Gives fine control over allocated server bandwidth, total server bandwidth, client connections bandwidth, and chunk size.
-
Enables conservation of server resources through setting the maximum number of client connections, client lifetime, and timeouts.
-
Enables performance enhancement through splitting the streaming process among multiple servers running on different machines.
-
Supports interactive client requests and server response handling
Client Component:
-
Decodes low image resolutions and progressively decodes higher resolutions on user request.
-
Decodes user-requested regions of interest (ROI), component, and quality.
-
Enables local caching of images information for faster future viewing.
-
Controls the amount of data delivered in each request.
