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 RAD files?
The RAD format is supported by a ray tracing application called Radiance, which contains several tools that support lighting simulation and measuring light levels.
