Due to scope drift, VR professionals are increasingly asked to deal with digital files beyond the still images we have traditionally managed. This extended seminar-type session seeks to familiarize us with best practices, archival formats, and current standards for commonly encountered video, audio, GIS, etc. file formats, and to explore challenges and solutions for their proper management. Following an intensive informational session, we will hear and discuss a set of case studies pertaining to going "Beyond TIFFs and JPEGs."
Endorsed by the Education Committee.
