FAQ
ISG to BMP Conversion
What are ISG files?
ISG is a text file format of the International Service for the Geoid, an official service of the International Association of Geodesy, based at the Politecnico di Milano in Italy. The service collects geoid models from many countries and republishes them in this single format, so that users do not have to deal with a different file layout for every country. A geoid model describes the shape of the surface of mean sea level, and it is what allows heights from satellite positioning to be converted into heights above sea level. A file of this type holds the geoid heights as numbers on a regular net of points, accompanied by a header that names the model, its author and year, and the area it covers. Some files also hold models given at scattered points.
What are BMP files?
The BMP or Bitmap file format is a popular raster graphic format, compatible with a wide array of image processing software, both on PC and Mac computers. BMP files store grids of pixels and detailed information concerning color tones and shades, and are highly appreciated for their ability to provide increased quality images. However, due to the lack of any compression algorithm in storing pixel data, BMP images can often be very large in size and thus difficult to store or transfer.
