title: Compressing different anatomical data types for the virtual soldier.
abstract: The Virtual Soldier Project endeavors to represent the baseline physiology and anatomy of a soldier using disparate but linked digital data types. Processing these data for storage, transmission and encryption requires different capabilities than are typical in a single codec. These representation and coding issues are illustrated and future directions are indicated.
