FAQ
GGF to KTX2 Conversion
What are GGF files?
GGF is the Trimble Grid File, a binary format that stores a geoid model as a regular grid of values. Geoid heights describe the separation between the reference ellipsoid used by GNSS receivers and mean sea level, so a GGF file lets Trimble field and office software convert ellipsoidal heights from satellite measurements into elevations above sea level. Each file represents one geoid model, such as a national or regional model, and the right file is chosen according to the geoid defined in the project's coordinate system. Files can be large, and Trimble Business Center offers to cut a smaller sub-grid for the survey area before sending a file to a field device.
What are KTX2 files?
KTX2 (Khronos Texture 2.0) is a container file format for GPU-ready texture data, published by the Khronos Group as the successor to the original KTX format. A single file can hold 1D, 2D, 3D, cubemap and array textures together with their full mipmap chains, stored in the memory layout expected by graphics APIs such as Vulkan, OpenGL and OpenGL ES, so the contents can be uploaded to the video card with little or no additional processing. Besides plain block-compressed data, KTX2 supports supercompression: Basis Universal (ETC1S and UASTC) allows one file to be transcoded at load time into the format the target device actually needs, while Zstandard and ZLIB simply reduce file size. The format is the texture payload used by the glTF KHR_texture_basisu extension, which makes it common in 3D assets for the web, game engines and AR applications.
