The VIPS library/image processing system is well suited for larger than RAM true and false-colour images. VIPS can be used for image format conversion, colour calibration, image filtering, transformation and analysis, thumbnail generation, small object recognition and many other image processing
... [More] tasks. VIPS is well suited for medical and scientific research & development and batch image processing. It is not so good for retouching photographs. The system has two main parts: libvips is the library, and nip2 is the GUI. Both execute common image processing tasks faster than other image processing systems because of sophisticated memory/task management and multicore compatibility.
VIPS runs in batch (command line) mode on *nix, Windows, Mac and other OSes. [Less]
nip2, the "free love child of Photoshop and Excel," is the GUI of vips. You don't directly edit images --- instead, like a spreadsheet, you build relationships between objects. nip2 actively manages these relationships: if you change an object property, the change is propagated "spreadsheet-style."

Like vips, nip2 is fast and needs little memory. You can comfortably work with multi-gigabyte images on very modest hardware.
In addition to the visual programming interface accessible through the GUI, nip2 has command-line and batch modes. It even has its own functional programming language (for writing extensions). [Less]
IIPimage is a client/server system for viewing and navigating within extremely high resolution remote images. It is based on the Internet Imaging Protocol and is able to work efficiently even over slow connections. The server is a plugin for Apache, Lighttpd, or any other FCGI-enabled Web server.
... [More] Images are viewed via an AJAX Javascript, Flash, or Java client. The system can also handle 3D image sequences, panoramas, or multispectral images. [Less]
BEAM is an open-source toolbox and development platform for viewing, analysing and processing of remote sensing raster data. Originally developed to facilitate the utilisation of image data from Envisat's optical instruments, BEAM now supports a growing number of other raster data formats such as
... [More] GeoTIFF and NetCDF as well as data formats of other EO sensors such as MODIS, AVHRR, AVNIR, PRISM and CHRIS/Proba. Various data and algorithms are supported by dedicated extension plug-ins. [Less]
