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 not stored 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 splitting it into smaller parts or using a desktop conversion tool.
Will the conversion affect the quality of my data?
Our converter aims to preserve the original data quality as much as possible. However, some minor differences may occur due to format-specific compression or data representation.
Understanding FITS and PGX Formats
FITS (Flexible Image Transport System) is a standard digital format used to store astronomical data, including images, spectra, and tables. It's widely adopted by observatories and researchers due to its ability to handle large datasets and metadata. PGX, on the other hand, is a format often used in specific astronomical software packages, offering optimized performance for certain tasks. Converting between these formats is crucial for data interoperability and analysis. This tool simplifies the process, allowing you to access your FITS data within environments that require the PGX format. The conversion process preserves the essential data integrity of your astronomical observations.
