The term "BMP format" refers to an uncompressed image file format (bitmap) primarily used on Microsoft Windows. BMP files store raster graphics as pixel data and include detailed color information for each pixel. The format’s simple structure makes it well-suited for basic image storage and cross-platform display, but its large file size makes it less efficient for web use or graphics-intensive applications.
Import and Export of BMP Files: Ability to open, save, and convert BMP files.
Image Display and Editing: Viewing and editing BMP images, such as cropping, rotating, or resizing.
Color Depth Support: Processing of various color depths (e.g., 1-bit, 4-bit, 8-bit, 24-bit, or 32-bit color data).
Conversion to Other Image Formats: Converting BMP files to JPEG, PNG, TIFF, GIF, or other formats for better compression or web optimization.
Batch Processing: Simultaneous processing or conversion of multiple BMP files.
Metadata Management: Reading and editing file properties such as resolution, color space, or DPI settings.
A graphics program supports batch conversion of BMP files into space-saving JPEGs.
A document management system stores scanned documents in BMP format for lossless archiving.
A CAD system uses BMP graphics to display raster backgrounds in construction plans.
An industrial control system generates technical diagrams in BMP format for further processing in analysis tools.
A developer uses an API to render BMP files in real time in a web application.
