FAQ
ASC to WPG 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 WPG files?
WPG (WordPerfect Graphic File) is a metafile created using WordPerfect, a text processor that can be used on MS-DOS, Windows, Macintosh and UNIX platforms. WPG files can contain vector graphics or raster images, as well as Encapsulated PostScript (EPS) data. They can be used for storing clipart and are supported by various advanced graphics design programs, including Corel Draw and Adobe Photoshop.
