JSON to FLIF Conversion
What are JSON files?
JSON is a general-purpose text extension, and several geographic data formats are saved under it. The best known is GeoJSON, a simple and popular way to store points, lines, and polygons with their attributes, which web maps and many services use. TopoJSON is a more compact relative of GeoJSON that stores shared borders only once, so neighboring regions do not repeat the same line. Esri JSON is the form in which Esri's web services return features, and OGC Features and Geometries JSON, called JSON-FG for short, is a newer extension of GeoJSON from the Open Geospatial Consortium that adds coordinate systems other than WGS 84, time, solids, and curved shapes. All of them are readable text, so a file can be opened in any text editor.
What are FLIF files?
FLIF (Free Lossless Image Format) is a royalty-free format launched at the end of 2015 as "work in progress" with the aim of offering a better alternative for storing lossless images than the existing PNG, WebP, BPG, JPEG2000 and JPEG XR. FLIF provides similar image quality as the other extensions, but in a file size than can be up to 74% smaller. The new format uses a form of the Adam7 algorithm for compressing images, offering progressive interlacing that allows users to obtain a reasonable encoding of an image even from a partial download.
