NITF Format (NTF) (original) (raw)

The NITF (National Imagery Transmission Format) file format is a raster file format created by the United States Department of Defense (DoD). For more information, refer to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Imagery_Transmission_Format.

The default extension used by this format is: NTF.

LEADTOOLS supports NITF version 2.1 and complexity level (CLEVEL) 3.

This file format does not support progressive loads and saves, multipage files, stamps, or Lossless JPEG compression.

NITF files contain both raster and non-raster data and so NITF files cannot be saved using the standard raster library. Use the separate NITF library to create and save NITF files
