Developed by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) for storing and managing digital images from space missions, VICAR files are designed to support a wide range of image types, including scientific and engineering data from various spacecraft instruments. This format is characterized by its ability to handle multi-dimensional arrays of data.
