FAQ
BOT to FITS Conversion
What are BOT files?
BOT is a Gerber format, which means it is part of a larger group of 2-D vector images used as a standard in the printed circuit board (PCB) industry. Gerber images are processed by photoplotting machinery in order to produce PCBs and they contain descriptions of different layers of the board or other details (electrical connections, vias, pads, drilling or milling data etc.). BOT files describe the bottom copper layer of a PCB and they can be used in the production of such a board without any other external files.
What are FITS files?
The FITS (Flexible Image Transport System) format is a standard format used particularly for storing, transferring and processing scientific images from fields such as astronomy. FITS was first launched as an open standard in the early 1980s and has gone through several subsequent upgrades. FITS files contain not just images, but also data related to photometry and spatial calibration, and information about the origin of the image. Similar formats include FIT and FTS.
