FAQ
MRF to WMF Conversion
What are MRF files?
MRF (Meta Raster Format) is a format for very large images, such as global satellite mosaics, that was developed at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory to serve maps to web browsers quickly. The picture is divided into many small square tiles, and the tiles are stored at several levels of detail, from the whole image at full resolution down to small overviews. A viewer needs to load only the few tiles that are visible, which makes it practical to browse images of enormous size. An MRF dataset is made of three files: a small readable file with the .mrf extension that describes the image, a data file with the tiles, and an index file with the .idx extension that tells where each tile is. NASA uses the format for its Global Imagery Browse Services, and Esri has helped to develop it further.
What are WMF files?
The WMF (Windows Metafile) format represents an image file with vector graphics, bitmap components or raster graphics, consisting mainly of drawing operations and commands. It was developed and released in the late 1980s by Microsoft and it included a 16-bit structure. In time WMF files were replaced by EMFs, featuring a 32-bit structure. WMFs are currently compatible with some programs from the Microsoft Office pack, such as Word, Power Point or Publisher.
