FAQ
MPR to PPM Conversion
What are MPR files?
MPR is the raster map file of ILWIS (Integrated Land and Water Information System), a GIS and remote sensing program developed at the ITC in the Netherlands for land use, water management, and environmental studies. A raster map is a grid of square cells, and every cell carries a value, such as a height, a reflectance recorded by a satellite, a land use class, or a plot number. The .mpr file is the readable description of such a map, and it points to the file that holds the cells, to the georeference that places the grid on the ground, and to the domain that explains what the values mean. A map can have up to about two billion lines. Maps in this format can be created in ILWIS or imported from many other raster formats.
What are PPM files?
PPM or Portable Pixelmap files are image files included in Netpbm, an open source graphics program. The other widely used Netpbm formats are PGM (Portable Graymap) and PBM (Portable Bitmap). All three are image formats and are sometimes called collectively PNMs (Portable Anymap format). While PGMs contains grayscale images, PPMs include color images and they represent intermediary files used in the conversion of less known formats using the Portable Bitmap Utilities. PPM files are mostly operated on UNIX and Intel-based platforms.
