Abstract
A system and method for determining statistical data for pixels of an image are provided, the pixels having a higher bit depth per band, the higher bit depth per band comprising greater than 8 bits per band. The method includes dividing the image having pixels with the higher bit depth per band into a plurality of polygonal sections, each polygonal section including substantially homogenous features; computing statistical data for pixels within each polygonal section; storing data of each polygonal section with the image in a storage medium; and storing the statistical data within each polygonal section with data of each corresponding polygonal section in the storage medium.
