MTV to VIFF conversion is the process of transforming image files in the MTV raster format (a format used by some legacy imaging tools and certain camera export workflows) into the VIFF (Khoros Visualization Image File Format) used for scientific visualization and image processing. This conversion remaps pixel data, headers, and metadata so the target VIFF file is readable by visualization and analysis tools that expect VIFF structure.
