RLA to SHP Conversion
What are RLA files?
The RLA image format, whose name stands for Run-Length Encoded Version A, is associated with the animation package Wavefront Advanced Visualizer. RLAs are output files storing 3D data and used for exchanging graphical data with other applications. They store several types of information, including images captured from live video, 3D rendered images and graphic images, field-rendered images and multichannel rendered image data.
What are SHP files?
The SHP (Shapefile) format stores vector files compatible with various Geographical Information System (GIS) software. SHP was developed by the Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI), an American provider of GIS software and geodatabase management solutions, with the aim of improving interoperability between GIS software produced by ESRI and other developers. An SHP file usually contains vectorial descriptions of geospatial data (e.g. rivers, lakes), including specific attributes.
