compression question dec 4, 2007

Compression is the use of less space without the loss of picture details. We use compression when on the web makes for speed efficient and quick down load time. You can compress a file to scale without loosing quality of picture.

The difference between lossy and lossless is no information or data is lost with lossless, whereas with lossy everytime you save it in jpeg form it condenses information and data is loss

compression questions

Compression is the application of Data compression on digital images. The reason we use it is to reduce redundancy of the image data in order to be able to store or transmit data in an efficient form. It basically uses less space without losing image quality.

The difference between lossy and lossless is no information or data is lost with lossless, whereas with lossy everytime you save it in jpeg form it condenses information and data is lost.

I chose to investigate the difference between the standard apple orchard and the new trend in farming, smaller tree's with the same amount of apples. This new way of farming allows for the same amount of apples with more yield per acre. This is called the European style of planting. The cost to the farmer is more at first but, the pay off is big. In the long run the farmer does not have to pay for ladders for tall tree's and tree's tend to be stronger because of the extra support system. Having a water irrigation system means the farmer is no longer at the mercy of the weather. He controls his crop. This farm is a great example of where farming is headed in order for profit. Also, the Sorbello farm is renting tree's to families for the season. What a great idea for kids and families.
