Frequently Asked Questions
Is the conversion process secure?
Yes, our conversion process is entirely secure. Your files are processed directly in your browser, and we do not store or access your data.
What is the maximum file size I can convert?
The maximum file size is 50MB. If your file is larger, please consider compressing it or using a desktop application.
Can I convert multiple FITS files at once?
Currently, our tool supports converting one FITS file at a time. We are working on adding batch conversion functionality in the future.
What if the converted PNG32 image looks different from the original FITS file?
Differences may occur due to the inherent nature of converting between different file formats. We strive to minimize data loss, but some subtle variations are possible. Adjusting the color mapping or scaling options in your image viewer may help.
About FITS and PNG32
FITS (Flexible Image Transport System) is a standard digital format used to store, manage, and exchange astronomical and other scientific data. It's commonly used for images, spectra, and tables. PNG32 (Portable Network Graphics) is a raster graphics file format that supports lossless data compression and a wide range of color depths, including 32-bit color, making it ideal for detailed images. Converting from FITS to PNG32 allows for easier viewing, sharing, and integration of scientific data into various applications and presentations. This conversion is particularly useful when you need a visually accessible format without the complexities of the FITS file structure. Our tool simplifies this process, providing a user-friendly way to transform your FITS data into a readily usable PNG32 image.
