By the way, what is "The GIS imaging world"?

TIFF format is widely used in the geospatial and remote sensing (i.e. aerial and space imaging) applications. You can learn a bit more about these area after reading content of the site, which hosts libtiff:

GIS world has slightly different set of widely used "standard applications" (and Photoshop is not one of them).
