Abstract
Remote sensing technology offers a very useful tool for understanding the earth. It brings us mass of information on the earth and makes the view of human being broaden greatly. With the remote sensing technology developing, the spatial resolution of image has been greatly upgraded. TIFF file format is a common format in graphics image processing. GeoTIFF format is extended from TIFF. The GeoTIFF is widely used as a storage format of remote sensing. But the format of TIFF and GeoTIFF is complex and they can’t be used efficiently under the windows operating system. In this paper, an efficient file reading platform for high-resolution remote sensing image is proposed. This new design builds an efficient reading platform of TIFF and GeoTIFF format file by image tiling and adding a cache in the middle of the intermediate file. At the same time this design is a part of high resolution remote sensing image compression system. It will have important theoretical and practical value for compression of the remote sensing images in the future.
