FAQ
SR2 to SHP Conversion
What are SR2 files?
SR2 is a proprietary format used by Sony cameras to capture RAW images. Other similar formats used by Sony are ARW and SRF. Shooting in RAW mode is very appealing for professional photographers because it allows them to control to a larger extent how the image will look like. With compressed formats such as JPG, the camera uses a series of pre-defined settings in order to bring the image to a reasonably small format, but in the case of RAW images the camera captures as much as its sensors allow and the photographer can correct unwanted aspects during digital post-processing.
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.
