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.

TGA files are widely used in various professional applications, including video editing, game development, and computer imaging, due to their ability to store high-quality graphics and support for features like alpha channels, gamma correction, and HDR imaging.
