FAQ
DCR to SHP Conversion
What are DCR files?
DCR is a RAW image format associated with Kodak cameras. DCR images are uncompressed and do not include any of the default color and light correction associated with shooting in formats such as JPEG. One of the main advantages of using a RAW format is the possibility to obtain a better image quality following digital post-processing, with more visible details and better defined shapes, less noise and better adjusted white balanced.
What are SHP files?
The SHP (Shapefile) format stores vector files compatible with various Geographical Information System (GIS) software. SHP was developed by the Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI), an American provider of GIS software and geodatabase management solutions, with the aim of improving interoperability between GIS software produced by ESRI and other developers. An SHP file usually contains vectorial descriptions of geospatial data (e.g. rivers, lakes), including specific attributes.
