Comparing Nearly Identical Images Using “Beyond Compare”

Author:

Journal of Forensic Identification

Abstract:

A recent article outlined methods for the comparison of nearly identical images. These included a byte-by-byte comparison using specialized software as well as a visual comparison by highlighting differences in pixels between the two images based on a threshold using Photoshop. This article presents an example of image comparison and proposes another, simpler solution, using software named Beyond Compare, that may be of interest to investigators.
