MAP to JXR Conversion
What are MAP files?
MAP is an extension used by three unrelated geographic formats. In OziExplorer, a popular program for navigation with scanned maps, a .map file is a small text file that ties a map picture to places on the Earth, so that a GPS position can be shown on the image. In PCRaster, a modelling system of Utrecht University for environmental processes such as water flow and erosion, a .map file is a raster of numbers, for example elevation or land use. In WAsP, the wind resource program of the Technical University of Denmark, a .map file is a vector map of height contours and roughness lines of the terrain, which is used to estimate how wind behaves at a site and how much energy a wind turbine would produce.
What are JXR files?
JXR or JPEG XR (JPEG Extended Range) is the extension used to define high resolution and high color depth images that provide better quality than regular JPEGs. The JXR format was initially developed as an HD Photo format for Windows' media viewers and editors and can support lossy or lossless compression. Its 48-bit RGB color range allows for accuracy in rendering images and better graphic representation. Additionally, JXRs can include an alpha channel which facilitates the editing of transparent layers.
