The J2C file extension stands for JPEG 2000 Code Stream, a format defined in Part 1 of the JPEG 2000 standard. Developed by the Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG) from 1997 to 2000, J2C files utilize wavelet-based compression, supporting both lossy and lossless compression. This format is primarily used for high-quality image storage and transmission, offering superior compression efficiency and flexibility compared to the original JPEG standard. J2C files are often embedded within other file formats like JP2 for enhanced metadata support.
The FITS (Flexible Image Transport System) file extension is widely utilized in the field of astronomy for storing, transmitting, and manipulating scientific data and images. Originating in the late 1970s, FITS was developed by NASA and the International Astronomical Union (IAU) to standardize the format for astronomical data. Its primary use is to archive astronomical images, spectral data, and other multidimensional data arrays, enabling efficient data interchange among scientists and astronomers. FITS files are known for their ability to store metadata and large datasets, making them essential for detailed scientific analysis and long-term preservation in research environments.
