Subject: Re: [Dspace-tech] Zooming software for Dspace

Alas, our JPEG2000 experiments were much less successful than this blog 
post implies.
Our primary goal was to create Pan & Zoom functionality that mimics the 
ease of use in Google Maps and other 'click-drag' tools. This shim 
simply was unable to scale to production level functionality, and we 
shifted our focus to the enterprise version of Zoomify and it's single 
file format.
However, the work being done by aDORe with the Kakadu library and 
Djatoka image server may hold promise for a JPEG2K-specific solution. At 
some point in the future we might take another look at JPEG2000 (I 
jokingly refer to JPEG2010). For now, the Zoomify tool is fulfilling our 
needs.

Djatoka demos:

The Kakadu-to-Zoomify code exists here if anyone is interested in 
looking at it:
https://dev.ohiolink.edu/svn/j2kTileRenderer/trunk/

I hope this helps,
