Abstract
A method is provided for transferring digital image data. The method identifies areas of the image that frequently change and divides the image into regions based on the identified areas. The regions may be created based on a distance between identified areas, an amount of data encompassed by the identified areas, or other desired parameters. A unionizing process is applied to each of the regions to create a change rectangle encompassing the changes in each region. The information representing each change rectangle may then be transferred, resulting in a more efficient utilization of bandwidth.
