The CCSDS-122-E encoder core from Alma Technologies is a complete and self-contained implementation of the CCSDS 122.0-B-1 image data compression standard. It offers numerically lossless and lossy image data compression with up to 16-bit pixel dynamic range. The encoder accepts the uncompressed image data in standard raster-scan pixel order and outputs standalone and fully compliant CCSDS 122.0-B-1 byte-stream format.
