HEIF (High Efficiency Image File Format) is the lossy image (and animation?) format defined by MPEG-H Part 12 (ISO/IEC 23008-12).
It is closely related to the HEVC video format, so in that way it is similar to BPG. It uses ISO Base Media File Format as a container format, so in that way it is similar to JPEG 2000.
Identifiers
