FAQ
LOS to JXR Conversion
What are LOS files?
LOS (Longitude Seconds) is a grid file of NADCON, the North American Datum Conversion tool of the U.S. National Geodetic Survey (NGS). It holds the east-west part of the correction that moves coordinates from an older datum, such as NAD27, to a newer one, such as NAD83, and it is always used together with a file of the same name with the .las extension, which holds the north-south part. Each file covers a region, such as the conterminous United States, Alaska, or Hawaii, with a regular net of points, and every point carries a shift in seconds of arc. Surveyors and mapmakers used these pairs for decades to bring older maps and survey records into agreement with modern positions.
What are JXR files?
JXR or JPEG XR (JPEG Extended Range) is the extension used to define high resolution and high color depth images that provide better quality than regular JPEGs. The JXR format was initially developed as an HD Photo format for Windows' media viewers and editors and can support lossy or lossless compression. Its 48-bit RGB color range allows for accuracy in rendering images and better graphic representation. Additionally, JXRs can include an alpha channel which facilitates the editing of transparent layers.
