FAQ
GRC to IFF Conversion
What are GRC files?
GRC is the classified grid format of Vertical Mapper, a spatial analysis add-on originally created by Northwood Geoscience in Canada and later acquired by MapInfo. A file of this type is a map made of equal cells, and each cell carries a category rather than a measurement, for example a land use class, a soil type, or a signal strength range. The category names and colors are stored with the map, so it can be displayed immediately. Its numeric counterpart, the .grd file, stores smoothly varying values such as elevation. The GRC format is widely used for mobile network planning, where coverage predictions around cell towers are saved as classified grids, and it is also used in mapping, environmental analysis, and land management.
What are IFF files?
IFF is an old image format associated with Amiga computers — a brand connected to Commodore, which used to be popular in the 1980s and 1990s. Commodore was one of the first types of personal computers to gain wide popularity among home users. An IFF file most likely contains an image that was created or edited using an image handling program on an Amiga computer. IFF files are currently considered obsolete and uncommon, so opening them with regular image viewers might be difficult.
