- Description
- The LDA (LaserData) file format is associated with laser imaging, detection, and ranging (LiDAR) technologies. It is used to store data captured by laser scanning devices, which include the three-dimensional coordinates of points in space, reflecting the contours and features of physical objects and terrains. LDA files enable the precise representation of environments for applications in surveying, urban planning, and geographical information systems (GIS). This format facilitates the analysis, manipulation, and visualization of high-resolution spatial data.
- A GIF file is an image file often used for web graphics. It may contain up to 256 indexed colors with a color palette that may be a predefined set of colors or may be adapted to the colors in the image. GIF files are saved in a lossless format, meaning the clarity of the image is not compromised with GIF compression.
