Convert DNG to VIFF

The Digital Negative (DNG) file extension, developed by Adobe Systems and introduced in 2004, is an open, lossless raw image format designed for digital photography. DNG aims to provide a standardized format for raw files, ensuring compatibility across various software and hardware platforms. It is based on the TIFF/EP standard and incorporates extensive metadata, making it suitable for long-term archival purposes. DNG files are widely supported by numerous camera manufacturers and software applications, facilitating efficient storage, sharing, and editing of high-quality images.

The Khoros Visualization Image File Format (VIFF), developed by AccuSoft Corporation, is a bitmap image format used primarily within the Khoros software environment for scientific and engineering applications. It supports various image types, including grayscale, color, and multi-spectral images, making it useful for visualizing complex datasets. Despite its powerful capabilities, VIFF is now considered somewhat obsolete due to the emergence of newer, more versatile image formats. However, it remains an important part of the history of image processing and visualization technologies.
