The VICAR file extension, developed by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, is a raster image format designed for storing and processing multi-dimensional scientific data from space missions. It includes metadata labels and image data, supporting various data types used in biomedical imaging and geological studies. The format ensures data integrity and usability, and the open-source VICAR software system enhances accessibility for scientific research.
The Portable Pixmap (PPM) file extension, an image format within the Netpbm family, stores simple, uncompressed images. Introduced in the late 1980s, PPM supports RGB color and grayscale images, making it suitable for basic image processing and conversion tasks. Its plain text encoding simplifies debugging and data manipulation, although its lack of compression results in larger file sizes compared to modern formats. As such, PPM finds limited use in contemporary applications, mainly in educational and experimental settings where ease of implementation and readability are prioritized.
