We at SFMOMA are on the heels of ingesting our permanent collection high resolution TIF files into our DAMS system and faced with the issue of whether or not to use compressed tiffs. While we know that they represent a lossless standard, we wonder if anyone has thoughts on issues that may arise concerning corruption, preservation, etc. In other words, is this really a good idea and are there cons to the pros of saving storage space?
