Format
World Panorama is supplied in TIFF format with associated geo-referencing files such as .AUX, .XML, .TFW, or .TAB. The TIFF images can also be used as stand-alone GeoTIFFs since the coordinate system and extent information is embedded in the header.
These TIFF files are available in two colour depths; 8 bit, 256 colour or 24 bit, 16.7 million colours. The 24 bit option is best used for printing purposes whereas the 8 bit option is more suitable for use on the web. In both cases, the majority of the colours used in the colour palette are for anti-aliasing. Anti-aliasing produces a smooth edge between colours and reduces a jagged, pixelated look.
All the images were generated entirely by digital methods with no optical scanning involved. The colours are pure and consistent throughout the complete set of images.
