Frequently Asked Questions

Is the conversion process secure?

Yes, we prioritize the security of your data. Your files are processed on secure servers and are automatically deleted after conversion.

What is the maximum file size I can convert?

The maximum file size is 50MB. If your file exceeds this limit, please consider compressing it or using a desktop conversion tool.

Can I convert multiple FITS files at once?

Currently, our converter supports converting one FITS file at a time. We are working on adding batch conversion functionality in the future.

What if the converted MIFF file looks different from the original FITS file?

Differences may occur due to the inherent differences between the FITS and MIFF formats. We strive to maintain the highest possible quality, but some data loss or alteration may be unavoidable. Adjusting ImageMagick settings after conversion can help optimize the output.

About FITS and MIFF 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 efficiently. MIFF (Magick Image File Format) is a versatile image format native to ImageMagick, a powerful image processing software. It supports a wide range of image types and features, making it suitable for various applications. Converting from FITS to MIFF allows you to leverage ImageMagick's extensive image manipulation capabilities on your astronomical data or other FITS-based images. This conversion can be useful for visualization, analysis, or integration with other image processing workflows.

Supported FITS File Types

  • Single-frame FITS images
  • Multi-frame FITS images
  • FITS images with various data types (e.g., integer, floating-point)
  • FITS images with associated metadata
