1Libgta is a portable library that implements the Generic Tagged Array (GTA) file
2format. This file format has the following features:
3
4* GTAs can store any kind of data in multidimensional arrays
5* GTAs can optionally use simple tags to store rich metadata
6* GTAs are streamable, which allows direct reading from and writing to pipes,
7  network sockets, and other non-seekable media
8* GTAs can use ZLIB, BZIP2, or XZ compression, allowing a tradeoff between
9  compression/decompression speed and compression ratio
10* Uncompressed GTA files allow easy out-of-core data access for very large
11  arrays
