Convert FIT to SVGZ

The Flexible Image Transport System (FIT) file format, widely used in the field of astronomy and imaging, is designed for the storage, transmission, and processing of digital images and data. Developed in the late 1970s by the International Astronomical Union (IAU), the FIT format has become the standard for storing complex data arrays, including metadata. FIT files are particularly valued for their ability to preserve high-precision scientific data and extensive headers, making them indispensable in both professional and amateur astronomical research.

SVGZ, or Scalable Vector Graphics Compressed, is a file extension for compressed SVG files, utilizing the GZIP compression method. Introduced to optimize web performance, SVGZ retains the scalability and resolution independence of SVG while reducing file size, leading to faster load times and reduced bandwidth usage. This format is particularly valuable in web development, digital graphics, and applications requiring efficient transmission and rendering of vector graphics. SVGZ emerged as part of efforts to enhance web technologies, catering to the increasing demand for high-quality, scalable visuals in a more efficient manner.
