b. VIPS, nip2 software and the post-processing workspace
VIPS is a free image processing system first developed in the 1990s in two EU-funded
ESPRIT programmes and which has been used in a number of EU-funded projects since.”
Nip2 is the graphical user-interface of VIPS. For an introduction to nip2 and detailed
instructions on it operation, see:
http://www.vips.ecs.soton.ac.uk/supported/current/doc/html/nipquide/nipguide.html!
As nip2 is entirely open-source and has full online instructions." Users wishing to investigate
how the transformations described in the workflows are carried out in more detail or needing
to modify these to their specific needs will be able to do so. In addition, nip2 is freely
available ensuring that, although the tools produced will be the property of the CHARISMA
project, the coding will remain open-source under the terms of the nip2 licence. As a result,
the workspace developed within the CHARISMA project will form part of a freely available,
non-proprietary image processing system, which will be maintained beyond the duration of
the project, and be as widely accessible as possible to the cultural heritage community.
