- Description
- The CIT file format, associated with Intergraph, is primarily used for storing raster graphics data. It is designed to handle scanned images, particularly in engineering, mapping, and construction projects where high precision and detail are required. The format is optimized for efficient storage and retrieval, supporting lossless compression to maintain the quality of the images. Intergraph systems utilize this format to manage and process large datasets of graphical information in professional environments.
- Based on HEVC (High-Efficiency Video Coding), the HEIF format is an image file container with one or multiple images and is the default image format for Apple Live Photos. It replaced the JPEG format as it's smaller in size and has lossless compression ensuring high-quality photos.
