FAQ
IPC to GLB Conversion
What are IPC files?
IPC is an extension that some people give to Apache Arrow files, short for the interprocess communication format of Apache Arrow. It is a fast file for tables of data, in which the values are stored column by column, so that programs written in different languages can open the same file quickly and without converting it. When one of the columns holds geometries such as points, lines, or polygons, the file follows the GeoArrow specification, which also records their coordinate system. The Arrow project itself recommends the .arrow extension for such files, and .feather is also common, so .ipc is not an official name and is met mainly in the work of data analysts who named the file after the format.
What are GLB files?
GLB is a binary file format, which contains 3D models saved in GL Transmission Format, and is a standardized format to share 3D data. GLB format can be used for free and is mostly used in science and engineering for doing complex analyses of landscape and 3D modelling. A GLB format is supported by all major 3D modeling programs.
