- Description
- The PAM image format is a lowest common denominator 2 dimensional map format. It is designed to be used for any of myriad kinds of graphics, but can theoretically be used for any kind of data that is arranged as a two dimensional rectangular array.
- The Visualization Image File Format (VIFF) is a specialized file format designed for storing image data. It is primarily used in scientific and technical applications where complex visualization of multi-dimensional data is required. VIFF files can store various types of data including grayscale, color, and multi-spectral images, making them suitable for tasks such as image processing, medical imaging, and remote sensing. This format supports a range of metadata, allowing for the inclusion of information about the image data, such as dimensions and color.
