The library achieves best results for low entropy +data as often encountered in space imaging instrument data or numerical model +output from weather or climate simulations. While floating point +representations are not directly supported, they can also be efficiently coded +by grouping exponents and mantissa. + +Libaec implements Golomb-Rice coding as defined in the Space Data System +Standard documents [121.0-B-2][1] and [120.0-G-2][2]. + +Libaec can replace SZIP. |
