Digital Image Assets: Data Footprint Optimization

Abstract

Now that you have an understanding of the fundamental concepts, terms, and principles of digital image new media content and the file formats that Android Studio and Android OS support, it is time to get a bit more advanced and take a look at data footprint optimization. involves saving your digital image asset in a way that it takes up the least amount of data storage; that is, it has the smallest possible file size. In this chapter, you will be looking at data footprint optimization for all the new media areas, because the smaller you make the new media assets for your Android application, the smaller that Android application will be in the Google Play Store, and the faster it will download, load into memory, and run once it is in memory.
