FAQ
BIF to STL Conversion
What are BIF files?
The BIF (BigTIF) file format is an extension of the standard TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) designed to handle extremely large raster images beyond the typical limitations of traditional TIFF files. It is commonly used in geospatial imaging, medical imaging, satellite photography, and high-resolution scanning where file sizes can exceed 4 GB.
What are STL files?
STL is the proprietary format for a computer-aided design (CAD) program developed by 3D Systems. STL is an acronym for Stereolitography, which is a type of technology used for creating prototypes or patterns through 3D printing. An STL file contains a surface representation of such a model, without detailed specifications of aspects such as colours. STL files can only be opened with a limited number of programs.
