Convert CALS to AVS
Convert CALS images to AVS format, edit and optimize images online and free.
The CALS (Continuous Acquisition and Life-cycle Support) Type 1 Image file format, developed by the United States Department of Defense in the mid-1980s, is a standard for storing raster (bit-mapped) image data, typically black-and-white. It ensures efficient data interchange and retention of orientation metadata. The format supports both uncompressed and compressed (using CCITT Group 4 compression) images. This standard was part of the broader CALS initiative aimed at improving electronic publishing and data management within the federal government.
The AVS (Application Visualization System) X Image file format, developed by Stardent Computer for UNIX systems, is a high-end raster image format designed for scientific visualization and complex data representation. Its true-color images with an alpha channel provide superior image integrity and transparency capabilities, ensuring accurate and clear visual data. Despite the emergence of newer formats, AVS X Image's uncompressed nature maintains its relevance in professional IT applications.
