FAQ
XYZ to WEBP 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 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.
