1config BR2_PACKAGE_SZIP 2 bool "szip" 3 help 4 Szip is an implementation of the extended-Rice lossless 5 compression algorithm. 6 7 The Consultative Committee on Space Data Systems (CCSDS) has 8 adopted the extended-Rice algorithm for international 9 standards for space applications[1,6,7]. Szip is reported to 10 provide fast and effective compression, specifically for the 11 EOS data generated by the NASA Earth Observatory System 12 (EOS)[1]. It was originally developed at University of New 13 Mexico (UNM) and integrated with HDF4 by UNM researchers and 14 developers. 15 16 http://www.hdfgroup.org/doc_resource/SZIP 17
