Re: [Gimp-user] loading jp2 images

[Adrian Midgley <amidgley gmail com>]

That's a JPEG2000 format image.
It allows larger colour depth and lossless compression, compared to JPEG.

Gimp up to 9.2 couldn't open them.  I doubt 2.10 can.

You can convert them to JPG or probably to TIF and those are both openable.
