  1. United States intelligence community
  2. International Standards Organization (ISO),
  3. American National Standards Institute (ISO/ANSI) and
  4. North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) (STANAG-4545).

NITF with rational polynomial coefficient (RPC) metadata is widely distributed by commercial satellite vendors and supported by imagery exploitation tools. It also serves as a sensor-agnostic mechanism for data exchange.
