FAQ
ERS to DXF Conversion
What are ERS files?
ERS is the header file of the ER Mapper raster format, developed for the ER Mapper image processing software, now part of ERDAS. A dataset of this type consists of two files: a plain-text header with the .ers extension and a binary data file with the same base name and no extension. The header describes the data in a structured, readable form, including the number of lines, cells, and bands, the data type of the pixels, the cell size, the byte order, and the coordinate system. The data file stores the pixel values themselves, without compression. The format is used for satellite and aerial imagery, geophysical grids, and elevation models, particularly in mining, exploration, and remote sensing, and it is recognized by many mapping and geoscience programs.
What are DXF files?
DXF (Drawing Exchange Format) is a format associated with AutoCAD, a popular program used for computer-aided design by engineers, architects and other professionals in the field of building design and construction. The DXF format was developed in the early 1980s by Autodesk with the purpose of increasing the interoperability between AutoCAD and other CAD or advanced image design programs. It supports 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional drawings, and can be opened using a wide array of image processing programs.
