FAQ
BT to JXR Conversion
What are BT files?
BT is a binary terrain format developed by Ben Discoe for the Virtual Terrain Project (VTP) to store regular elevation grids used in 3D terrain visualization and simulation. A file of this type consists of a fixed 256-byte header followed by an uncompressed array of elevation samples, stored as 16-bit integers, 32-bit integers, or 32-bit floating-point numbers. The header carries the grid dimensions, sample size, horizontal units, geographic extents, datum, and, for projected data, a UTM zone, while a complete projection definition may be supplied in an accompanying .prj file. Elevation samples are written column by column, starting from the western edge and moving south to north within each column. The format is used to exchange digital elevation models between terrain-building tools and visualization software, and is often distributed in a gzip-compressed .bt.gz form.
What are JXR files?
JXR or JPEG XR (JPEG Extended Range) is the extension used to define high resolution and high color depth images that provide better quality than regular JPEGs. The JXR format was initially developed as an HD Photo format for Windows' media viewers and editors and can support lossy or lossless compression. Its 48-bit RGB color range allows for accuracy in rendering images and better graphic representation. Additionally, JXRs can include an alpha channel which facilitates the editing of transparent layers.
