FAQ
GIS to JXR Conversion
What are GIS files?
GIS is a raster file format used by version 7.x of the ERDAS image processing software, the predecessor of the ERDAS IMAGINE (.img) format. A file of this type holds a single layer of pixels, most often a thematic map in which every value is a class, such as a land cover type, rather than a measured brightness. It is closely related to the .lan format of the same software generation, which stores multi-band satellite imagery such as Landsat scenes. The file begins with a short header that identifies the format version and describes the image size, the pixel depth, and the map location of the grid. Class names and display colors are usually kept in an accompanying file. The format was also supported by other mapping systems, including Arc/Info and ArcView.
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.
