The University of Arizona is leading an "advanced digital imaging project" using HiRISE (High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment) to enable better pictures to be taken from space. This equipment is currently orbiting Mars on NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO). This imaging equipment is able to take very high resolution/detailed pictures of Mars for better analysis and planning for future Mars landings. The file sizes can be more than 2GB each and therefore take up a lot of space and are difficult to manage. This technology helps mamage the growing imaging requirements of these types of missions.
