FAQ
IPC to ICO 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 ICO files?
ICO files contain the images used as icons for files, folders or programs on the Microsoft Windows platform. The icons appear on the desktop, in Windows Explorer or in the Start Menu and help identify each item. ICO images are generally of a small size, are scalable, and they can also serve as website logos or symbols that appear in the web browser next to the URL. The equivalent of ICO files on Mac computers is called ICNS.
