Image transformation, compression, and decompression codecs
===========================================================

Imagecodecs is a Python library that provides block-oriented, in-memory buffer
transformation, compression, and decompression functions
for use in the tifffile, czifile, and other scientific imaging modules.

Decode and/or encode functions are currently implemented for Zlib DEFLATE,
ZStandard, Blosc, LZMA, BZ2, LZ4, LZW, LZF, PNG, WebP, JPEG 8-bit, JPEG 12-bit,
JPEG SOF3, JPEG LS, JPEG 2000, JPEG XR, PackBits, Packed Integers, Delta,
XOR Delta, Floating Point Predictor, and Bitorder reversal.

Notes
-----
Imagecodecs is currently developed, built, and tested on Windows only.

The API is not stable yet and might change between revisions.

Works on little-endian platforms only.

Python 2.7 and 3.4 are deprecated.

Refer to the imagecodecs/licenses folder for 3rd party library licenses.

This software is based in part on the work of the Independent JPEG Group.

This software includes a modified version of `jpg_0XC3.cpp
<https://github.com/rordenlab/dcm2niix/blob/master/console/jpg_0XC3.cpp>`_.
