# The SDK Base Classes

The image pipeline reader, writer, and filter classes that support the MrSID SDK’s image pipeline system all rely on a set of base or “core” classes. This chapter introduces these classes, which represent such constructs as pixels, geographic positions, scenes, buffers, and so on.

The names of the types, classes, etc., described in this chapter are generally prefixed with the letters “LTI”. The corresponding header files can be found in the include directory.

For detailed information on these classes, please refer to the Reference Manual. Examples of the use of many of these classes can be found in the Reference Manual and in the examples directory.

Subsequent chapters of this manual introduce the actual readers, writers, and filters provided with the SDK, including the MrSID and JPEG 2000 encode and decode classes.Click any link below for more information.
