JPEG 2000 is the most recent work of the JPEG standards committee. It is intended to improve upon several areas of the original JPEG standard such as lossy encoding, blocky appearance, and inefficient compression.

Although this standard is intended to be implemented on a no-charge basis, the JPEG committee does allow for inclusion of patented or otherwise non-free technology as per ITU and ISO policy on reasonable and non-descriminatory terms.
