FAQ
BIN to PDF Conversion
What are BIN files?
BIN is a proprietary binary grid format developed by the National Geodetic Survey (NGS) of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to distribute regional and national geoid height models, such as GEOID12B, GEOID18, and USGG2012. A file of this type stores continuous arrays of geoid-ellipsoid separations used to convert ellipsoidal heights obtained from GPS/GNSS measurements into orthometric heights (elevations above sea level). The format is completely uncompressed and structured strictly into fixed-length records without internal metadata tags. Spatial properties, including geographic boundaries, cell spacing, and grid dimensions, are defined entirely within a standardized binary file header, allowing geodetic software to compute precise height transformations across specific geographic regions.
What are PDF files?
PDF (Portable Document Format) is one of the most popular formats used for storing document files which include both text and graphics. As opposed to other formats with a similar function, PDFs can be easily transferred between different applications and different operating systems, and generally don't have a very large size. Moreover, they can offer decent image quality in a compressed format and can be secured with passwords or watermarks.
