The ICB file extension, associated with Targa Graphics, stands for Image Capture Board. It was originally used with the AT&T EPICenter Image Capture Board video card and software like ICB-PAINT and TARGA-PAINT. This format is a raster graphics file used for storing and exchanging deep-pixel images, supporting 8, 16, 24, and 32 bits per pixel. Developed by Truevision Inc., it played a significant role in early computer graphics for high-color display on IBM-compatible PCs.
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.
