FAQ
ASC to EPI Conversion
What are ASC files?
The ASC (Esri ASCII Grid) format stores raster geospatial data as plain text. Developed by the Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI), it describes a rectangular grid of cells using a short header — number of columns and rows, coordinates of the lower-left corner, cell size and a no-data value — followed by the cell values themselves, written row by row as ordinary numbers. Because the entire grid is human-readable text, ASC is widely used for exchanging elevation models, slope maps and other continuous surfaces between GIS packages that would otherwise share no common binary format.
What are EPI files?
EPI (Encapsulated Interchange Script) is an interchange format associated with Adobe Illustrator and represents a vector file used by graphic designers to create and edit drawings. EPI files can contain maps, logos, page layouts or several other types of drawings including text and graphics. Due to their vector format, EPI files can be incompatible with most popular image viewers.
