- Description
- The ICA file type, associated with IOCA (Image Object Content Architecture), is a graphic file format primarily used for storing image data in a structured manner. It was developed by IBM to facilitate the exchange and processing of complex image documents among different systems and applications. IOCA supports various image types, including bitonal, grayscale, and color images, making it versatile for different imaging needs. It is commonly used in document management and imaging applications, particularly in industries that handle large volumes of scanned documents, such as banking, insurance, and healthcare.
- 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.
