FAQ
SHZ to JXR Conversion
What are SHZ files?
SHZ is a Shapefile packed into a single ZIP archive. The Shapefile is a very widely used vector format of Esri, but it is really a group of files with the same name: one with the shapes, one with the index, one with the attribute table, one with the coordinate system, and sometimes a few more, and it is easy to lose one of them when copying or sending the data. An SHZ file keeps all of them together in one compressed file, which is smaller, easier to move, and cannot be separated. It holds one map layer, with points, lines, or polygons and their attributes. Recent versions of mapping programs can open and edit such a file directly, without unpacking it.
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.
