FAQ
MTW to JP2 Conversion
What are MTW files?
MTW is the matrix version of the Raster Matrix Format, a format of the GIS programs Panorama and Integration, used to store digital elevation models. A file of this type contains a grid in which every cell holds the height of the terrain, so that it can serve as the basis for relief maps, profiles, slope analysis, and three-dimensional views. Its sibling, the .rsw file, belongs to the same format family but holds ordinary pictures, such as scanned maps and aerial photographs. An MTW file also records how the values should be read, including the units, which can be meters, decimeters, centimeters, or millimeters, and whether the heights are absolute elevations. It also carries simple georeferencing, so that the grid can be placed on a map.
What are JP2 files?
JP2 or JPEG 2000 is an improved version of JPEG, one of the most popular file formats for storing and transferring images. Compared to the latter, JP2 image files offer higher quality and smaller size images by using a different compression algorithm, which can be either lossy or lossless. JP2s are created using the JPEG2000 Core Coding application, but can also be obtained through conversion from other formats.
