Abstract
A system and method for storing data related to an image is disclosed. The method may include: unevenly dividing the image into polygonal image sections, each comprising pixels and each of the pixels having band(s) and a bit depth per band that is too high for displaying on a display screen; dividing the image into quads such that each quad has a boundary that contains at least a portion of one of the polygonal image sections; obtaining statistical data associated with the image, the statistical data being computed for each of the bands of each of the pixels within each of the polygonal image sections; storing, with respect to a reduced resolution dataset (R-Set) of the image, coordinates of bounds of at least one polygonal image section that intersects with a quad; organizing the image, the quads, and the polygonal image sections in a tree structure; and storing the statistical data, the pixel coordinates, and the tree structure.
