FAQ
DIB to SHP Conversion
What are DIB files?
The DIB (Device Independent Bitmap) format represents a variation of the BMP format and contains a 2D raster image which is independent of its display device. It is mostly used on Windows and OS/2 platforms and can store monochrome or color images. As a bitmap format, DIB can be opened by the largest part of image viewers.
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.
