Khoros Visualization Image File Format (.viff)

VIFF and XV both stand for an identical format. The VIFF (Khoros Visualization Image File Format) is the native format for the Khoros System, a visual programming environment for image processing and visualization in scientific and commercial research. VIFF files support various image types with color spaces and can store multiple images per file. The format includes a 1024-byte header, followed by image data and optional colormap data, making it ideal for image and signal processing, pattern recognition, and geographic information systems.

Portable Floatmap (.pfm)

The Portable Floatmap (PFM) file format, also known as Portable FloatMap, is an image file format designed to store High Dynamic Range (HDR) images using floating-point values. Developed in the spirit of the Portable Pixmap format, PFM files contain image data with resolutions and byte order specified in the header. This format is particularly useful for applications requiring precise image data, such as computer graphics and image processing. PFM has been widely adopted in the IT industry for its ability to handle a wide range of pixel values beyond the standard 0-255 range, making it ideal for HDR imaging and other advanced visualizations.
