FAQ
PIX to STEP Conversion
What are PIX files?
PIX is the file of the PCIDSK format, the working format of Geomatica and the other remote sensing programs of PCI Geomatics, a Canadian company. It is a kind of database in a single file, in which hundreds of image channels can be kept together, for example the spectral bands of a satellite scene, with each channel having its own bit depth, together with vector layers, masks, color tables, the coordinate system, and descriptions. Everything that other formats keep in a set of separate files is in one place, so the image, its georeferencing, and the results of processing stay together. The format has been in use since the late 1980s for satellite and aerial imagery, and its description is open. The same extension is also used by some unrelated image formats.
