00062  * \section over Overview
00063  * \par
00064  * IM is a toolkit for Digital Imaging. 
00065  * \par
00066  * It provides support for image capture, several image file formats and many image processing operations. 
00067  * \par
00068  * Image representation includes scientific data types (like IEEE floating point data) 
00069  * and attributes (or metadata like GeoTIFF and Exif tags).
00070  * Animation, video and volumes are supported as image sequences, 
00071  * but there is no digital audio support.
00072  * \par
00073  * The main goal of the library is to provide a simple API and abstraction
00074  * of images for scientific applications.
00075  * \par
00076  * The toolkit API is written in C. 
00077  * The core library source code is implemented in C++ and it is very portable, 
00078  * it can be compiled in Windows and UNIX with no modifications. 
00079  * New image processing operations can be implemented in C or in C++.
00080  * \par
00081  * IM is free software, can be used for public and commercial applications.
00082  * \par
00083  * This work was developed at Tecgraf/PUC-Rio 
00084  * by means of the partnership with PETROBRAS/CENPES.
