- 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.
- A PSD file is an image file created by Adobe Photoshop, a professional image-editing program often used to enhance digital photos and create web graphics. It is the native format used to save files in Photoshop. PSD files may include image layers, adjustment layers, layer masks, annotations, file information, keywords, and other Photoshop-specific elements. They are commonly created and shared among graphics professionals.
