Frequently Asked Questions

Is the conversion process secure?

Yes, we prioritize the security of your data. All uploaded files are processed securely and are automatically deleted from our servers after conversion.

What is the maximum file size I can upload?

The maximum file size for FITS to JPC conversion is 50MB. If your file exceeds this limit, please consider splitting it into smaller parts.

Can I convert multiple FITS files at once?

Currently, our converter supports single file conversion. However, we are working on adding batch conversion functionality in the future.

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

While we strive for perfect conversion, some minor differences may occur due to the inherent nature of image compression. You can adjust the JPC compression settings to optimize the balance between file size and image quality.

About FITS and JPC Formats

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. JPC (JPEG 2000) is a wavelet-based image compression standard offering superior compression ratios and image quality compared to traditional JPEG. Converting from FITS to JPC allows for more efficient storage and sharing of astronomical images while preserving detail. This conversion is useful for visualization, archiving, and distribution of scientific data. Our tool simplifies this process, making it accessible to researchers and enthusiasts alike.
