PNG Portable Network Graphics Image

It's a type of raster image file format that uses lossless compression. This means that the image quality is preserved even when the file size is reduced. PNG files also support transparency, which allows images to have irregular shapes or backgrounds that blend with the web page. However, PNG files do not support animation, unlike GIF files.

Key Features of PNG

  • Space-Saving Efficiency:

    PNG’s compressed format delivers smaller files than uncompressed alternatives (e.g., BMP), accelerating webpage loads without sacrificing quality.
  • Lossless Compression:

    Using the same DEFLATE algorithm as ZIP files, PNG’s lossless compression retains crisp details - ideal for repeated edits or archiving.
  • Diverse Imagery:

    Where JPEG struggles with artifacts in text/logos, PNG excels at rendering solid colors and hard edges flawlessly.
  • Advanced Color Options:

    From full 24-bit RGB (plus 8-bit alpha transparency) to compact 256-color palettes, PNG adapts to both complex photos and simple graphics.

XYZ Point Cloud File

A file extension that is used for ASCII text files that contain point cloud data. Point cloud data is a collection of 3D points that represent the shape of an object or a scene. Each row in an XYZ file consists of 3D point coordinates, typically separated by a special character like a TAB.

Key Features of XYZ

  • Data Structure:

    Each line represents one point (X Y Z coordinates).
  • Minimalism:

    No headers, metadata, or binary encoding.
  • No Topology:

    Pure vertex data without mesh connections.
  • Industry Use:

    Common in surveying, autonomous vehicles, and heritage preservation.

XYZ File Conversion

Autoconverter reconstructs polygonal meshes creating lightweight surface approximations ideal for visualization and 3D printing. For engineering and manufacturing applications requiring mathematical precision, Autoshaper generates smooth NURBS surfaces directly from XYZ point data, providing the accurate surface representation needed for CAD/CAM workflows.
