<p><strong class="big">iii. Preface</strong></p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The GeoTIFF format was initially developed during the early 1990’s (N. Ritter & Ruth, 1997) in order to leverage a mature platform independent file format (TIFF) by adding metadata required for describing and using geographic image data. TIFF met the requirements for an underlying format, as it was lossless and extensible. In September 1994, SPOT Image Corp proposed a GeoTIFF structure that was limited to Universal Transverse Mercator (N. Ritter & Ruth, 1997). The proposed GeoTIFF specification was augmented and formalized by Ritter and Ruth as Revision 1.0, specification version 1.8.2 in November 1995 (N. Ritter & Ruth, 1995), with minor adjustments published in 2000, available at <a href="http://geotiff.maptools.org/spec/geotiffhome.html" class="bare">http://geotiff.maptools.org/spec/geotiffhome.html</a>, which is the official GeoTIFF specification version 1.0.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The GeoTIFF format is used throughout the geospatial and earth science communities to share geographic image data. That usage inevitably leads to identification of new requirements and needs for profiles, extensions, and improvements to the original GeoTIFF Specification. The OGC is well established as a forum for standardization in the GeoTIFF producer and user communities and, as such, it provides an inclusive standardization process for those communities. This document is the first step in the process of integration of the GeoTIFF specification into that standardization process, with the adjustment of a minor revision in order to allow the use of modern EPSG register, allowing backward compatibility with Revision 1.0. Moving forward within the OGC, the standard can be evolved using a formal process.</p>

<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>This OGC<strong>®</strong> Standard defines the Geographic Tagged Image File Format (GeoTIFF) file format by specifying the content and structure of a group of industry-standard tag sets for the management of georeferenced or geocoded raster imagery using Aldus-Adobe’s public domain Tagged Image File Format (TIFF). This specification provides the requirements to which every GeoTIFF file must adhere.
GeoTIFF defines a set of TIFF tags provided to describe all "Cartographic" information associated with TIFF imagery that originates from satellite imaging systems, scanned aerial photography, scanned maps, digital elevation models, or as a result of geographic analyses. Its aim is to allow means for tying a raster image to a known model space or earth-based coordinate reference system, and for describing those coordinate reference systems.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The tags documented in this specification are to be considered completely orthogonal to the raster-data descriptions of the TIFF specification, and impose no restrictions on how the standard TIFF tags are to be interpreted, which color spaces or compression types are to be used, etc.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>This minor revision of GeoTIFF focuses on updating the current GeoTIFF community specification and aligning it with current OGC standardization practice, as well as enabling the use of coordinate reference systems that have been included in EPSG register since the GeoTIFF 1.0 specification dating from 1995. It should therefore be backward compatible with the 1.0 version, both for coordinate reference systems based on EPSG register codes, or user-defined coordinate reference systems. <a href="#">Backward compatibility</a> documents this backward compatibility and evolutions of this revision 1.1.</p>
