FAQ
VIC to PIC 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.
What are PIC files?
The PIC file format was first associated with PC Paint and later on with its developed version, Pictor Paint. It was one of the first formats accepted as a standard under the DOS platform, and it was developed by John Bridges. PIC files represent raster images, which can use an up to 24-bit color range. The advanced versions of PC Paint and Pictor Paint support image compression and the PIC files created using these programs are device-independent.
