In recent years, some hyperspectral image compression algorithms based on three-dimensional wavelet transform [1,2,3,4,5] are particularly interested thanks to their excellent compression performances and many attractive properties, such as the three-dimensional Set Partitioning in Hierarchical Trees (3D SPIHT) [4,5], the three-dimensional Set Partitioned Embedded bloCK (3D SPECK) [1], and the JPEG2000 multi-component (JPEG 2000-MC) [2,3].
They are also capable of recording high-resolution images even at a wide angle of view, thanks to image sensor technology and image compression technology developed by Sharp over the years.
The new technology uses the digital image compression technique of JPEG to create realistic-looking, comprehensive maps of underground oil reservoirs using measurements from scattered oil wells.
