This document discusses the International Image Interoperability Framework (IIIF). It was established in 2011 by several cultural heritage institutions to enable international, interoperable access to image resources and sharing of technologies for image handling and display.
The document outlines the key IIIF APIs - the Image API which provides access to image content and information, the Presentation API which provides bibliographic context for images, and the Search and Authentication APIs. It also discusses how the Goobi viewer has implemented IIIF since 2016 for tiled image viewing using the Image API, and since 2018 for displaying structure and metadata using the Presentation API.
