- Description
- Image created using Multi-resolution Seamless Image Database (MrSID) compression, which was developed by Extensis for compressing large images; commonly used to partition and store large Geographic Information Systems (GIS) images.
- Generic Windows or OS/2 bitmap graphic; similar to a .BMP file, but has different header information; supports 1, 4, 8, and 24 bits per pixel if the image is uncompressed and 4 and 8 bits per pixel if the image uses RLE compression; a 24-bit DIB image contains 8 bits, or 1 byte for each RGB color.
