The ICO file extension, standing for "Icon", is integral to Microsoft Windows for storing icons of different sizes and color depths. Its primary use is to display graphical representations of executable programs, files, and folders within the Windows operating system. The ICO format's origins trace back to the early versions of Windows, evolving over the decades to support enhanced resolutions and alpha transparency. Today, ICO files ensure visually consistent and scalable icons that maintain their appearance across various display settings, aligning with modern user interface standards.
The CALS (Continuous Acquisition and Life-cycle Support) Type 1 Image file format, developed by the United States Department of Defense in the mid-1980s, is a standard for storing raster (bit-mapped) image data, typically black-and-white. It ensures efficient data interchange and retention of orientation metadata. The format supports both uncompressed and compressed (using CCITT Group 4 compression) images. This standard was part of the broader CALS initiative aimed at improving electronic publishing and data management within the federal government.
