Abstract

A method is provided for converting raster format image data to vector format image data comprising the step of generating contour data for a plurality of isochromic contours, whereby each isochromic contour is determined by applying a curve fitting process to a plurality of possible solution points and spatial error bounds for said solution points, wherein said solution points and error bounds are based on said raster format image data, said solution points being deemed to have colour values equal to the colour value of the contour, and the contour data is sufficient to allow reconstruction of said contour using the curve fitting process. Also provided are a method of converting raster format image data to vector format image data comprising the steps of determining a minimum set of contours to be generated by using diffusion equations to define a plurality of watersheds and generating contour data defining a contour around each watershed and methods of rendering an image from vector format image data and of determining errors in pixel colour values.
