FAQ
ERS to JXR 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 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.
