MrSID is a proprietary data format that allows raster image files to be substantially compressed with little to no loss of image quality. This format, developed and marketed by LizardTech, Inc. (http://www.lizardtech.com/), allows you to view any portion of a MrSID image at any resolution very quickly. The name stands for "Multi Resolution Seamless Image Database."
