+
9
+ ## What is ITW?
10
+
11
+ ITW is a proprietary image format used in BMW's Technical Information System (TIS) software for storing technical illustrations (wiring diagrams, exploded views, etc.). The format supports two compression codecs:
12
+
13
+ - **Subtype 0x0300** — Wavelet compression (biorthogonal wavelet transform, ~5:1–14:1 ratio)
14
+ - **Subtype 0x0400** — Entropy compression (Huffman + RLE interleave)
15
+
16
+ All images are 8-bit grayscale, typically 316×238 pixels.
17
+
18
+ For a full technical description of the format and decoding algorithms see [`docs/HOW_IT_WORKS.md`](docs/HOW_IT_WORKS.md).
19
+
20
+ ## Installation
21
+
22
+ ### Global (recommended for CLI use)
23
+
24
+ ```bash
25
+ npm install -g @emdzej/itw-decoder
26
+ ```
27
+
28
+ ### Local / development
29
+
30
+ ```bash
31
+ pnpm install
32
+ ```
33
+
34
+ ## Usage
35
+
36
+ ```
37
+ Usage: itw-decode [options] <input>
38
+
39
+ Decode BMW TIS .ITW proprietary image files to PNG
40
+
41
+ Arguments:
42
+ input path to the .ITW file to decode
43
+
44
+ Options:
45
+ -V, --version output the current version
46
+ -o, --output <file> output PNG path (default: <input>.png in cwd)
47
+ -d, --dir <directory> output directory, keeps auto-derived filename (default: cwd)
48
+ -h, --help display help for command
49
+ ```
50
+
51
+ ### Examples
52
+
53
+ ```bash
54
+ # Decode — output defaults to ./26.png
55
+ itw-decode samples/1/03/95/26.ITW
56
+
57
+ # Explicit output path
58
+ itw-decode samples/1/03/95/26.ITW -o out/diagram.png
59
+
60
+ # Write to a directory, keep original filename
61
+ itw-decode samples/1/03/95/26.ITW -d out/
62
+ ```
63
+
64
+ > **Note:** `-o` and `-d` are independent; `-o` takes full precedence when both are supplied.
65
+
66
+ ### Dev (without global install)
67
+
68
+ ```bash
69
+ ./node_modules/.bin/ts-node src/index.ts samples/1/03/95/26.ITW -o output.png
70
+ ```
71
+
72
+ ## Bulk testing
73
+
74
+ To test against a full GRAFIK corpus directory:
75
+
76
+ ```bash
77
+ # First 100 files
78
+ ./node_modules/.bin/ts-node bulk_test.ts /path/to/GRAFIK --limit 100
79
+
80
+ # All files
81
+ ./node_modules/.bin/ts-node bulk_test.ts /path/to/GRAFIK
82
+ ```
83
+
84
+ ## Test results
85
+
86
+ Tested against the full 47,660-file GRAFIK corpus:
87
+
88
+ | Metric | Value |
89
+ |--------|-------|
90
+ | Success rate | **98.67%** (47,028 / 47,660) |
91
+ | 0x0300 wavelet decoded | 35,117 |
92
+ | 0x0400 entropy decoded | 11,911 |
93
+ | Failures | 632 — all genuinely malformed/truncated source files |
94
+
95
+ The dominant failure reason is "wavelet payload overruns file" (470 truncated files), not decoder bugs.
96
+
97
+ ## Project structure

+
