About FITS

Flexible Image Transport System

The standard data format in astronomy since 1981, storing images and tables behind plain-text headers that record telescope and observation details. Convert from FITS to get a viewable PNG or JPG of telescope data; convert to it for astronomy software.

About JP2

JPEG 2000

A wavelet-based image format standardized in 2000, with lossy and lossless modes. It never caught on in web browsers, but digital cinema, medical imaging and map archives use it. Convert from JP2 to get a file ordinary apps can open; convert to it when an archive or imaging system requires it.
