- 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 TIFF file is a graphics container that stores raster images. It may contain high-quality graphics that support color depths from 1 to 24-bit and supports both lossy and lossless compression. TIFF files also support multiple layers and pages.
