This document describes a new class for the Insight Toolkit~(ITK www.itk.org) for reading images across a network. Network access is handled by CURL (http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/), an Open Source library for client-side URL transfer. CURL supports the FTP, FTPS, HTTP, HTTPS, SCP, SFTP, TFTP, TELNET, DICT, LDAP, LDAPS and FILE protocols. This paper is accompanied with source code and a test to load a NRRD file across the network and verify that is is read properly.
