In this task, multiple approaches to the compression of RAW data are characterized, with different trade-offs between the compression factor, latency, available hardware/detector infrastructure and impact on the final physics result. The goal would be achieved by considering both lossy and lossless algorithms, as well as replacing basic information with higher-level quantities derived from it (physics-driven compression).
