JNG to SHP Conversion: FAQ
What are JNG files?
JNG (JPEG Network Graphics) is an offshoot of the PNG/MNG family that packages a JPEG-compressed RGB image together with a lossless PNG-style alpha channel, giving you full transparency at smaller file sizes than an equivalent PNG. It uses the same chunked structure as PNG, making it easy to embed metadata or animation cues when paired with MNG. Despite its clever hybrid design, mainstream browsers and tools never embraced JNG, so it remains a niche format overshadowed by PNG, WebP, and AVIF.
What are SHP files?
The SHP (Shapefile) format stores vector files compatible with various Geographical Information System (GIS) software. SHP was developed by the Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI), an American provider of GIS software and geodatabase management solutions, with the aim of improving interoperability between GIS software produced by ESRI and other developers. An SHP file usually contains vectorial descriptions of geospatial data (e.g. rivers, lakes), including specific attributes.
