data compression methods  

Definition(s)

  • Data compression is a common solution to two problems: (1) the need to decrease the storage space required for spatial data and (2) the need to minimize the resulting transmission times. Extensive exploratory research has been carried out and many algorithms have been implemented for the compression of image data and video data.
