In order to meet the different needs for different users to the quality of remote sensing images in heterogeneous network environments, an online remote sensing image progressive transmission model is constructed in which remote sensing image compression and decompression are synchronized with transmission. At the same time, a pipeline-based multi-threaded acceleration method has been proposed through solving the asynchronous problem between compression decompression and transmission to improve the efficiency of remote sensing progressive transmission. At last, an idea of retry broken downloads transmission interruption has been implemented to improve end-user interactive experience. Experimental results show that the whole processing speed has been improved nearly twice without reducing image transmission quality by using the proposed progressive transmission and real-time compression model.
