What are DAT files?
The DAT format is associated with images taken using a program developed by SPOT Image, a public company created by the French Space Agency with the aim of monitoring and studying natural resources and human activity on the entire planet Earth. SPOT Image distributes images taken by its two SPOT satellites in orbit and provides pictures from various spots on our planet, of varying resolutions.
What are AVIF files?
AVIF is a new image format launched at the end of 2020. AV1 Image File Format was developed by the Alliance for Open Media in collaboration with Netflix, Google and Cisco. This format was created to be an open-sourced and royalty-free image format with a super-compression efficiency. Multiple graphics compression tests show that the .avif format outperforms the JPEG, PNG and WebP image formats for its image quality to compressed file size ratio.
