Can I convert multiple FITS files at once?

Currently, we only support converting one FITS file at a time. We are working on adding batch conversion functionality in the future.

What if the converted HDR image looks different from the original FITS image?

The conversion process involves mapping data to a different color space. Differences in appearance may occur due to this mapping and adjustments made for optimal visualization. You may need to further process the HDR image to achieve your desired look.

Understanding FITS and HDR

FITS (Flexible Image Transport System) is a standard digital format used to store scientific images, particularly in astronomy. It’s designed to handle large datasets and metadata. HDR (High Dynamic Range) is an image format that represents a greater range of luminosity than standard digital images. Converting FITS to HDR allows for better visualization of astronomical data, revealing details that might be hidden in the original format. This conversion is useful for image processing, creating visually appealing representations of scientific data, and sharing results with a wider audience. The process involves mapping the FITS data to the HDR color space, often requiring adjustments to brightness and contrast to achieve optimal results. Our online tool simplifies this process, making it accessible to everyone.
