Convert JIF to FITS
Convert JIF images to FITS format, edit and optimize images online and free.
The JIF (Joint Photographic Experts Group Interchange Format) is a standard for compressing and encoding digital images. Initially introduced in 1992 by the Joint Photographic Experts Group, JIF became widely adopted due to its efficient lossy compression method, which significantly reduces file size without a substantial loss in image quality. Primarily used for web graphics and digital photography, JIF has influenced the development of other formats like JPEG and its various subtypes, ensuring high compatibility across different platforms and devices.
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.
