Abstract
Photogrammetric data, whether it refers to terrain or to close-range images, are typically massive in size. This results in a dataset that is often too large to handle and prohibits any form of real-time interaction or even visualization. Therefore, special database structures and image storing formats should be sought. FlashPix image format supports images of any size, and any resolution. Images in FPX format are stored at multiple independent resolutions. This special structure allows applications to select the appropriate resolution for a certain procedure and to access directly the specific areas of an image needed for the operation being performed. This eliminates the need to process the entire image for viewing a small part of it, or to handle a large amount of data (high resolution image) in order to produce a smaller amount of data (displaying a lower resolution image). This paper presents research efforts on identifying visualization tools, which can make use of this special image format, taking thus advantage of its special data structure. 1.
