About FITS

Flexible Image Transport System

The standard data format in astronomy since 1981, storing images and tables behind plain-text headers that record telescope and observation details. Convert from FITS to get a viewable PNG or JPG of telescope data; convert to it for astronomy software.

About HDR

Radiance HDR

The HDR format from the Radiance renderer, storing each pixel as red, green and blue values with a shared exponent byte, so it holds a far wider brightness range than 8-bit images. Most HDRI environment maps ship in this format. Use it to light 3D scenes, or convert from it to get an ordinary 8-bit preview.
