The VICAR (Video Image Communication and Retrieval) file extension is a specialized raster image format developed by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in 1966 to manage and process imaging data from unmanned planetary missions. It supports multi-dimensional scientific data, including spectroscopic, hyperspectral, and radar imagery, making it suitable for space exploration, biomedical imaging, and geological studies. The format includes metadata for data integrity and usability, and the software system is now open-source.
The JBG file extension stands for Joint Bi-level Image Group, a format developed for efficient lossless compression of binary images, primarily used in fax transmissions. Introduced by the Joint Bi-level Image Experts Group, JBG files store 1-bit raster images and offer superior compression compared to older standards like CCITT Group 3 and 4. Although initially popular for fax machines, the format has largely been superseded by JBIG2, which provides even better compression.
