FAQ
GVB to JXR Conversion
What are GVB files?
GVB is a datum grid shift file that follows the NTv2 (National Transformation version 2) model, created by the Geodetic Survey of Natural Resources Canada. Such a file helps convert map coordinates between two geodetic datums, which are different mathematical models of the Earth, so that old and new survey data line up correctly. It covers an area with a net of points and stores, for each of them, how far latitude and longitude have to be moved, usually with an estimate of the accuracy of the shift. A program finds the points nearest to a location and calculates the exact correction between them. Files with this structure are used by national mapping agencies and surveyors, and they are particularly valuable for cadastral and engineering work, where small errors matter.
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.
