Images can be displayed in a!imageField using a!documentImage. I tried briefly with a .tiff file of my own, though, and it appears after a brief try that .tiff is not supported for on-form display within Appian. Thus unless you have a way to convert the image to .jpg or .png or another more common image format, my guess is this won't be possible.

Yeah the type of file doesn't matter - you can set up a Web API that accepts a file and starts a process to associate the file with a case or other data. Here's a tutorial that describes how to set this up: https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/latest/passing-a-web-api-document-into-a-process-model.html
