FAQ
ZARR to PIC Conversion
What are ZARR files?
ZARR is an open format for storing very large multidimensional arrays of numbers, such as satellite image series, climate model output, weather forecasts, and microscope scans. A Zarr data set is cut into small chunks, and each chunk is compressed and saved on its own, so a program can read just the part it needs without loading the whole data set, and many computers can work on different parts at the same time. The format was designed for cloud storage, where data are kept as separate objects, and it is now widely used for analysis-ready geospatial data in the cloud. It is maintained by a community of developers, and an OGC community standard describes its second version.
What are PIC files?
The PIC file format was first associated with PC Paint and later on with its developed version, Pictor Paint. It was one of the first formats accepted as a standard under the DOS platform, and it was developed by John Bridges. PIC files represent raster images, which can use an up to 24-bit color range. The advanced versions of PC Paint and Pictor Paint support image compression and the PIC files created using these programs are device-independent.
