libvips is a demand-driven, horizontally threaded image processing
library. Compared to similar libraries, libvips runs quickly and uses
little memory.
It has around 300 operations covering arithmetic, histograms, convolution,
morphological operations, frequency filtering, colour, resampling,
statistics and others. It supports a large range of numeric formats, from
8-bit int to 128-bit complex. Images can have any number of bands. It
supports a good range of image formats, including JPEG, TIFF, PNG, WebP,
FITS, Matlab, OpenEXR, PDF, SVG, HDR, PPM, CSV, GIF, Analyze, NIfTI,
DeepZoom, and OpenSlide. It can also load images via ImageMagick or
GraphicsMagick, letting it load formats like DICOM.
libvpis comes with bindings for C, C++, and the command-line. Full
bindings are available for Ruby, Python, PHP, .NET, Go, and Lua.
