JPEG 2000 (.jp2) is the ISO/IEC 15444 international standard that uses a wavelet transform instead of the block DCT of ordinary JPEG. On osm2cdr.ru the map is rendered to PNG and then converted to .jp2 through GDAL's JP2OpenJPEG driver. Wavelet compression gives graceful degradation without blocky artefacts and multi-resolution decode. Both lossy and lossless modes are supported. The output is a raster RGB image of the map (not a multi-band satellite scene); it is a compact replacement for heavy PNG in high-resolution map posters and raster overlays.
