VIC to CGM Conversion
What are VIC files?
VIC and VICAR are two archaic formats designed in the 1960s by NASA, particularly for storing, transferring and editing interplanetary and astronomical imaging data. The formats were later used in various other industries as well, including biomedical services, cartography and geology. Both VIC and VICAR formats are now considered rare and probably difficult to access outside specialized software.
