FAQ
VRT to WEBP Conversion
What are VRT files?
VRT (Virtual Raster) is a small text file in XML format that describes an image or a map without containing any pixels of its own. It points to one or many other raster files and explains how to combine them: which pieces to place side by side in a mosaic, which bands to take, which part of a large picture to cut out, and how the values should be rescaled. Programs that open a VRT file see a single ordinary image, while the real data stay in the source files. This saves disk space and time, because a mosaic of thousands of tiles can be assembled in an instant and changed by editing a few lines of text. The format is widely used in remote sensing and mapping to work with large collections of images.
What are WEBP files?
WebP is an image file format released by Google in 2010 with the aim of challenging the leading positions of JPG and PNG in the domain of storing and transferring digital images. The purpose of the WebP format is to improve the speed of browsing by offering the same quality as JPEG or PNG, but in a smaller size. WebP images can contain both lossy and lossless compression. They continue, however, to be incompatible with some image viewers and browsers, and are often described by analysts as "work in progress" — a format that still needs to be developed.
