ECW to APNG Conversion
What are ECW files?
ECW (Enhanced Compression Wavelet) is a highly efficient image compression format designed for large raster images, commonly used in geospatial and satellite imagery. It uses wavelet-based compression to deliver high-quality visuals at significantly reduced file sizes, enabling fast streaming and zooming.
