Mission & Goals
ISO, the International Organization for Standardization, brings global experts together to agree on the best way of doing things – for anything from making a product to managing a process. As one of the oldest non-governmental international organizations, ISO has enabled trade and cooperation between people and companies all over the world since 1946. The International Standards published by ISO serve to make lives easier, safer and better. The Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG) committee (ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 29/WG 1) is a joint working group of the International Standardization Organization (ISO) and the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). JPEG has a long tradition in the creation of still image coding standards. More specifically, the JPEG committee is Working Group 1 (WG 1), JPEG Coding of digital representations of images, of JTC 1's subcommittee 29 (SC 29), Coding of Audio, Picture, Multimedia and Hypermedia Information.
