| Description | The CIT image format, also known as the CalTech image format, is a binary file format used for storing monochrome or color images. It was developed by the California Institute of Technology and has a maximum file size of 4 gigabytes. CIT files contain image data in a raw format, which means they do not include any header or metadata information. Instead, the image data is stored as a continuous stream of bytes, with each pixel represented by a single byte for monochrome images or three bytes (red, green, and blue) for color images. The CIT format uses a little-endian byte order, which means that the least significant byte is stored first. This is important to consider when reading or writing CIT files on systems that use a different byte order. In addition to storing image data, the CIT format supports optional compression using a variant of the Lempel-Ziv-Welch (LZW) algorithm. This can help reduce the file size of CIT images, but can also increase the time required to read or write the file. Overall, the CIT format is a simple and efficient way to store image data, particularly for scientific and technical applications that require precise control over image data. |

| Description | JPG is the file format for images made by digital cameras and spread throughout the world wide web. Saving in JPG format an image loses its quality, because of the size compression. But at the end you have a much smaller file easy to archive, send, and publish in the web. These are the cases when an image's size matters more than image's quality. Nonetheless, by using professional software you can select the compression degree and so affect the image's quality. |
