- The PIX file format is associated with PCI Geomatics, a software suite used for geospatial image processing and analysis. A PCI Geomatics Database File (PIX) contains raster data, which represents geographic information in a pixelated format. This file type is specifically designed to store and manage complex geospatial datasets, including satellite imagery, aerial photos, and other forms of remote sensing data. The PIX format is capable of handling multiple bands or layers of data, making it suitable for various applications.
- Raster image based on the Targa Truevision format; can store data up to 32 bits per pixel, with 24 bits for the RGB information and 8 bits for the alpha channel; may also incorporate lossless RLE compression to reduce the file size.
