Video Image Communication and Retrieval (.vicar)

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.

Morphology Kernel Image File (.kernel)

The KERNEL file extension, associated with Morphology Kernel Image, stands for "Kernel Image File". It defines structuring elements for morphological operations like erosion, dilation, opening, and closing in image processing. These operations are crucial for tasks such as image segmentation, object detection, and noise removal. Originating in the 1960s with mathematical morphology, the KERNEL file encapsulates the shape and size of the structuring element, influencing the results of these operations.
