for the National Imagery Transmission Format (NITF)

VERSION 4.0
   
   
  Overview:
   
  This Controlled Extension (CE) compendium provides the approved CE specifications to be used with the National Imagery Transmission Format (NITF) versions 2.0 (NITF2.0) or 2.1 (NITF2.1).  This compendium is an unclassified companion to STDI-0001, National Support Data Extensions (SDE) (Version 1.3) for the National Imagery Transmission Format Standard (NITFS).  The documents do not overlap or conflict.  SDE implementation requirements are defined in N0105-98, NITFS Standards Compliance and Interoperability Test and Evaluation Program Plan.
   
  CE Version 4.0 of the compendium is divided into two volumes. Volume 1 addresses the Tagged Record Extensions (TREs) for NITF. Volume 2, when published, will address Data Extension Segments (DES) for NITF. See the online version of the compendium at http://jitc.fhu.disa.mil/nitf/off_reg.html for the most recent changes. Each appendix and table of contents in the files posted here have their own version number and date to simplify incorporating future changes. When changes are made to an appendix, the version number and date for both the appendix and the table of contents will change. CE Version 4.0 Volume 1 can be downloaded as a whole or by individual appendices in .pdf format using the links below.
