VICAR to MIF Conversion: FAQ
What are VICAR files?
VICAR and VIC (Video Image Communication Retrieval) are two bitmap formats originally created by NASA for storing images captured during space missions. The two extensions were launched in the 1960s and later on they were also used for various other applications, including biomedical imaging, earth resources and geology. Both formats are considered highly specialized and archaic, so opening them using regular image viewers is probably difficult.
What are MIF files?
The MIF extension can be associated with vector images under the MapInfo Interchange Format, in which case it consists of a map and a database exporting file. Also MIF or MIFF file format represents a raster image associated with ImageMagick. This open source program is specialized in editing images, and it is mostly popular among developers as it doesn't have an advanced graphical user interface, so it can mainly be used under command-line. reaConverter supports both types of MIF formats and can convert to vector MIF if the source file is also a vector, and to raster if the source file is a raster image.
