- Description
- The HED (Hi-Eddi) file type is associated with specialized software used in the analysis and processing of high-resolution electron density maps, primarily in the fields of crystallography and structural biology. These files contain data related to the electron density of molecules, which is crucial for determining molecular structures at atomic or near-atomic resolution. HED files are used to store, exchange, and analyze data in a format that supports the intricate details required for high-precision scientific work. The format facilitates the interpretation and modeling of molecular structures, enabling researchers to understand biological functions and interactions at a molecular level.
- A WEBP file is an image saved in the WebP (pronounced "Weppy") raster image format developed by Google for web graphics. It is designed to reduce image file sizes over standard JPEG compression while maintaining the same or similar quality. WEBP files allow images to be downloaded more quickly.
