Technical note

How BIP and HPG differ in practice

Geospatial coordinates are absolute positions on the earth, and they are large: a projected easting runs to six or seven digits, while latitude and longitude are small decimals. HPG expects a drawing laid out near its own origin in millimetres or inches. The geometry itself converts correctly, but it can land tens of kilometres from 0,0, or arrive at a scale where an entire county is forty units across. Zoom to extents first, then measure one known distance before dimensioning anything. A line in a BIP image is several pixels wide, so tracing it can mean different things and the mode is yours to choose. Centreline returns a single line running down the middle of each stroke, which is what a scanned drawing needs: one entity per line, snappable and dimensionable, rather than a long thin rectangle around it. Outline follows both edges and returns closed shapes, which suits clipart, logos and anything that will be filled or cut. A precision setting controls how closely the traced paths follow the pixel edges. One thing to plan for: vectorised output from this path is black and white, so colour in the BIP does not survive as colour in the HPG.

Map Data Workflow

Turn GIS data into something anyone can open

A map saved as HPG opens on any computer and any phone. reaConverter produces those from BIP in batch, entirely offline.

  • Render every file in a folder to HPG with the same size and settings
  • Set DPI and output dimensions before the run, not afterwards
  • Pick up new data automatically with Watch Folders, or script the job from the command line

Everything runs on your PC, which matters for cadastral, utility and client data that should not pass through an upload form.

FAQ

BIP to HPG Conversion

What are BIP files?

BIP is a raw binary raster format developed by ESRI to store and manage multi-band geospatial data, including multispectral satellite imagery, hyperspectral data, and multi-layered surface models. Characterized by an uncompressed architecture where pixel data is interleaved sequentially by pixel across all available spectral bands, a file of this type contains no internal metadata, headers, or coordinate definitions. To be read and visualized within a geographic information system, a BIP file depends strictly on an accompanying plain-text sidecar file with a .hdr extension, which dictates vital structural parameters such as the number of rows, columns, bands, and data type. It is frequently accompanied by other auxiliary files like .bpw for world coordinates and .prj for projection info.

What are HPG files?

HPG is a vector image format created in a standard programming language called HPGL (Hewlett-Packard graphics language). Other extensions created in this language include PLT, HP2 and PL2. All are called "plotter files" and are created by drawing programs such as AutoCAD to be printed using a device specialized in vector graphics. An HPG file uses a line series of two-letter codes to render an image and can also include parameters.

Can reaConverter convert BIP to HPG?

Yes! reaConverter instantly converts .bip to .hpg with perfect quality preservation. With its batch processing feature, you can convert multiple files at once in just a few clicks. You can even convert images directly from Windows Explorer using the right-click menu — fast and convenient.

What is reaConverter used for?

reaConverter is a Windows converter for 800+ formats, GIS data among them. For BIP to HPG it replaces the usual detour through QGIS, ArcGIS or ogr2ogr: add the files, pick the output format, and the whole batch converts offline. Surveyors, planners and engineering teams use it to pass data between GIS, CAD and everyday document formats.

Why choose offline conversion with reaConverter?
