FAQ
XYZ to PSD Conversion
What are XYZ files?
XYZ is a very simple text format for terrain and other surface data, in which every line gives the position of a point and the value measured there. The three letters stand for the east-west coordinate X, the north-south coordinate Y, and the value Z, which is most often a height but may also be a temperature, a depth, or any other quantity. In its gridded form, the points sit at regular intervals, so the file describes a map made of equal cells, and each line holds the center of one cell and its value. Because it can be opened in any text editor and produced by a few lines of script, the format is a favorite for exchanging elevation data between programs, although the files are large compared with binary formats.
What are PSD files?
PSD is the default format for handling images using Adobe Photoshop and it represents a layered image file. PSDs allow later editing of available layers, including transparency, masks, alpha channels and texts, among others. After applying all desired editing, PSD files can be saved in Photoshop under more easily recognizable formats, such as JPEG or PNG, which are also smaller in size but flatten the image and hence do not allow later editing of layers.
