- Description
- The National Imagery Transmission Format (NITF) is a file format developed for the purpose of standardizing the storage and exchange of digital imagery and associated metadata among various government agencies and their contractors. It is widely used by the military, intelligence, and other governmental organizations to handle satellite and aerial imagery, maps, and other types of geospatial information. The NITF supports a wide range of imagery types, including but not limited to infrared, radar, and optical images. The format is designed to ensure interoperability and to facilitate the dissemination of critical imagery intelligence within secure and classified environments.
- An ICO file is an image format used to store icons for Windows programs, files, and folders. It contains two bitmaps: 1) the AND bitmap - the image mask (which determines what part of the icon is transparent) and 2) the XOR bitmap - contains the icon which is mapped onto the image mask. ICO files can be modified to create custom icons.
