FAQ
PARQUET to PCX Conversion
What are PARQUET files?
PARQUET in this context is GeoParquet, a way of storing geographic data, such as points, lines, and polygons with their attributes, in Apache Parquet files. Parquet is an open format for large tables that keeps the values of each column together and compresses them, which makes files small and lets a program read only the columns and the parts of the table that it needs. GeoParquet adds to it the information that makes the table geographic: which column holds the shapes, how they are encoded, and in which coordinate system they are given. The format is popular for analysis of very large data sets in the cloud, such as all buildings of a country, and it has been developed within the Open Geospatial Consortium. Plain Parquet files without geographic information use the same extension.
What are PCX files?
The PCX (Personal Computer Exchange) image file format is associated with PC Paintbrush, an image editing software initially designed for MS-DOS by ZSoft Corporation. At first, PCX files stored a limited range of colors but in time their range was extended to a 24-bit (true color) palette, and PC Paintbrush was adapted for Windows too. Though widely popular during the days of MS-DOS, the PCX format in time lost its appeal and was gradually replaced by formats such as JPEG and PNG.
