A JP2 (.jp2) file is a JPEG 2000 image format, developed as a successor to JPEG (.jpg) by the Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG). It offers superior compression efficiency and image quality compared to standard JPEG.

Key Features of JP2 Files:

  • Better Compression Than JPEG
    • Uses wavelet-based compression, providing higher image quality at smaller file sizes compared to standard JPEG’s block-based compression.
  • Supports Both Lossy and Lossless Compression
    • Unlike JPEG, JP2 can compress images without losing any data (lossless), making it useful for archival purposes.
  • Higher Bit Depth for Improved Quality
    • Supports up to 16-bit color depth per channel (compared to JPEG’s 8-bit), allowing for richer colors and smoother gradients.
  • Transparency & Alpha Channel Support
    • Can store alpha transparency, making it more versatile than standard JPEG.
  • Metadata & Multi-Layer Support
    • JP2 files can contain multiple layers, metadata, and progressive encoding, useful for medical imaging, geospatial applications, and high-end photography.
  • Limited Software Compatibility
    • Not as widely supported as JPEG, though it can be opened with Adobe Photoshop, GIMP, IrfanView, and specialized image software.

Common Uses of JP2 Files:

  • Medical & Satellite Imaging (high-quality storage without loss)
  • Archival & Digital Preservation (lossless compression for storing original images)
  • Professional Photography & Printing (higher bit depth and quality)
