  2. NITFS Technical Board • The technical focal point for still imagery, and imagery-related standardization activities within the GEOINT community. • Initially established in the early 1990’s by the Imagery Standards Management Committee (ISMC). • Now serving as a technical board within the GWG’s Focus Group construct.

  3. NTB Description • The mission of the NTB is to facilitate the: • Development, • Selection, • Adoption, • Profiling, • Application, • Implementation, and • Testing of standards essential to establishing interoperability and quality for still imagery, associated metadata, and other related aspects within the NSG

  4. Standardization Topics • Still imagery and gridded data • Imagery and gridded data formats • Imagery and gridded data compression • Graphical, textual, and other means to annotate imagery and imagery products • Imagery-related support data and metadata • Imagery-derived data and metadata, to include foundation data • Image Quality • Other topics as designated by the GWG

  5. Examples of Standards • Mil-Std-2500C NITF Version 2.1 • Mil-Std-2301A Computer Graphics Metafile • Mil-Std-188-198A JPEG Image Compression • Mil-Std-188-199 Vector Quantization Decompression • STDI-0001 National Support Data Extensions (SDEs) • STDI-0002 Compendium of TREs • STDI-0004 FDDRD • STDI-0005 Implementation Practices of the NITFS (IPON) • STDI-0006 NITF 2.1 Commercial Dataset Requirements Document (NCDRD) • N0105/98 NITFS Test Program Plan • N0106/98 BWC Standards & Guidelines • NSG-STD-001-05 NGA NITF 2.0 Dataset Definition Document (NNDDD) • NSG-STD-002-05 NGA Commercial Data Definition Document (NCDDD)
