- Description
- The MIL file type, associated with CALS Raster, represents a standardized image file format developed for the exchange of documents and images, primarily within the United States Department of Defense. It adheres to the CALS (Continuous Acquisition and Life-cycle Support) initiative aimed at improving the efficiency of technical data management. MIL files, being raster images, are composed of pixels, making them suitable for detailed graphics like scanned documents and technical drawings. This format is designed for interoperability and long-term digital preservation, ensuring that documents can be accessed and remain readable over extended periods.
- A JPG file is an image saved in a compressed image format standardized by the Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG). It is commonly used for storing digital photos and used by most digital cameras to save images. JPG files are among the most common image files along with .PNG, .TIF, and .GIF.
