FAQ
ASC to X3D 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 X3D files?
The X3D file format is an open standard file format used for 3D graphics and animation. It is based on the VRML (Virtual Reality Modeling Language) format and is designed to be platform-independent, allowing for easy sharing and distribution of 3D models. X3D files can store information about geometry, textures, lighting, animation, and interactivity. The format is supported by a variety of 3D software applications and web browsers with the appropriate plugins or extensions.
