[edit] Overview

BigTIFF is a TIFF-like image file format, which supports larger files and data structures than does TIFF. It is logically almost identical to TIFF, though it is not compatible with it.

[edit] Identification

Files begin with 49 49 2B 00 08 00 00 00 (little-endian BigTIFF), or 4D 4D 00 2B 00 08 00 00 (big-endian BigTIFF).

[edit] Software

  • LibTIFF, starting with version 4.
  • Fork of libtiff, apparently unofficial fork of libtiff which originated with Aperio, now part of Leica Biosystems.
