- Description
- Raster image format developed by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory; stores an image that has been taken on a mission by NASA's spacecraft; also contains information that describes the structure and type of data along with a history of processing that has been done to the image.
- It is an image compression codec file with the same quality as .jpeg, but that is ten smaller. It supports HDR (High Dynamic Range). SDR (Standard Dynamic Range), and WCG (Wide Color Gamut) images. Also, it contains both the image sequences and image items. The only pitfall is that a few applications support it.
