FAQ
IPC to PNG 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 PNG files?
The PNG (Portable Network Graphics) file format was designed in the mid-1990s as an improved alternative to the previously existing JPG and GIF formats, and as an extension which would be particularly web-friendly. In time, PNG files have gained a wide popularity and are highly appreciated at the moment for their ability to provide a lossless compression of images, which translates in high-quality and detailed renderings.
