BIIF PROFILE for Computer Graphics Metafile Ver. 01.00
   

   
  Overview:
   
  The Basic Image Interchange Format (BIIF) provides a file format that is suitable for the interchange, storage, and retrieval of map and imagery information.  The file format consists of a file header and associated image(s), symbol(s), text and/or associated data in a way that is compatible between systems of different architectures and devices of differing capabilities and design.  Symbols within a BIIF file may consist of ISO/IEC 8632-based Computer Graphics Metafiles (CGMs).  This BPCGM01.00 profile defines a subset of CGM elements, sets limits for generation and interpretation behavior according to the rules for profile definition defined in ISO/IEC 8632.  The BPCGM profile defines a version 1 CGM suitable for use in annotation of digital imagery such as that defined by BIIF ISO/IEC 12087-5: 1998.
