NITF to DXF Conversion
What are NITF files?
NITF (National Imagery Transmission Format) is a file format developed in the United States for exchanging satellite and aerial imagery in a standard way, and it is also used by NATO under the name NSIF. A file of this type works as a package: it can hold one or several images together with vector graphics, labels, symbols, text, and a large amount of descriptive information about the source of the data, such as the sensor, the time, the accuracy, and the security classification. The format was created for secondary imagery from overhead collection platforms, and it became the common language of military and intelligence imagery, and of commercial satellite data. The current version is described in the Joint BIIF Profile. Files may use the .ntf or .nitf extension.
What are DXF files?
DXF (Drawing Exchange Format) is a format associated with AutoCAD, a popular program used for computer-aided design by engineers, architects and other professionals in the field of building design and construction. The DXF format was developed in the early 1980s by Autodesk with the purpose of increasing the interoperability between AutoCAD and other CAD or advanced image design programs. It supports 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional drawings, and can be opened using a wide array of image processing programs.
