- Description
- The Marks Russel File (MRF) format is a specialized file type primarily associated with geospatial data visualization and processing. It serves as a container for multi-resolution imagery, allowing for efficient storage and rapid access to large-scale, high-resolution satellite or aerial images. MRF files are particularly useful in geographic information system (GIS) applications, where they facilitate seamless zooming and panning across detailed maps. This format is designed to optimize performance in web-based mapping applications and support distributed access to geospatial data.
- 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.
