The Portable Graymap (PGM) file extension, originating in the late 1980s as part of the Netpbm project, stands for "Portable Gray Map". It serves as a simple, versatile format for grayscale images, enabling easy reading and writing by various programs. Due to its straightforward structure and plain text encoding, it's often used in academic and research settings where ease of parsing and accessibility are crucial. PGM files store grayscale images in a compact, efficient manner, making them an essential tool for image processing tasks.
The PAM (Portable Arbitrary Map) file extension is a versatile bitmap format used primarily in UNIX-based systems. It extends the Portable Any Map (PNM) format, supporting 2-dimensional image data storage in a binary format with an ASCII header. Introduced to enhance flexibility and interoperability in image processing, PAM files are utilized for various graphical applications, offering a standardized method for handling diverse image types. This format's history traces back to the need for a more adaptable and comprehensive bitmap solution within the PNM family.
