FAQ
PRF to IGES Conversion
What are PRF files?
PRF is an image format of PHOTOMOD, a photogrammetric software system of the Russian company Racurs that is used to process aerial and satellite photographs and to produce maps and elevation models. The format is also known as MegaTIFF. It was created for very large images, which can exceed 4 GB and cannot be saved in an ordinary image file. The picture is cut into smaller parts that are stored in separate files, and a small overview picture is added so that the whole image can be shown quickly at a small scale. A short .prf file ties all of the parts together and describes the image. A related variant for elevation data uses the .x-dem extension.
What are IGES files?
IGES (Initial Graphics Exchange Specification) is a widely used file format for exchanging 2D and 3D CAD data between different design and engineering software. It supports wireframe, surface, and solid models, making it a common standard in mechanical, aerospace, and automotive industries.
