Questions & Answers
BIP files: Frequently Asked Questions
What are BIP files?
BIP (ESRI Band Interleaved by Pixel) is a flat binary raster layout for multispectral data, where the spectral values of one pixel are written sequentially, followed by those of the next pixel. This arrangement favors pixel-based classification and spectral signature extraction, but is less efficient for single-band filtering than BSQ or BIL. The file stores raw matrices of integer, unsigned integer, or floating-point values in big-endian or little-endian order, as defined by the mandatory ASCII .hdr companion. Because the bands of each pixel are adjacent, a three-band 8-bit BIP file corresponds almost directly to the pixel order of an RGB bitmap, which simplifies conversion to PNG, JPEG, or TIFF; files with more bands first require choosing three bands, often a false-color set with near-infrared, and stretching them to 8 bits. GeoTIFF keeps full precision. The format is supported by ArcGIS, QGIS, Global Mapper, and ENVI, and Cloud Optimized GeoTIFF (COG) is recommended for web and cloud use.
Can reaConverter open BIP files?
reaConverter fully supports the BIP file format – open, edit, and export BIP files to any other popular file format with ease.
Do I need QGIS or ArcGIS to convert BIP files?
No. reaConverter reads BIP files on its own, so the conversion needs no GIS installation and no licence. It handles whole folders at once, which suits survey archives, tile sets and data deliveries that have to reach people working in other software.
How do I change BIP to another format?
reaConverter is a user-friendly tool for converting BIP files. Once installed on your computer, it allows you to convert all your .bip files at once with just a few clicks. You can even convert bip images directly from Windows Explorer using the right-click menu — fast and convenient.
