Which of the following formats represents examples of uncompressed raster data?

The correct answer encompasses formats that represent uncompressed raster data, which is essential for applications requiring high-resolution images without loss of quality that can occur through compression techniques.

TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) and GeoTIFF are both notable for their ability to store raster images in an uncompressed format. They are widely used in geospatial applications because they maintain the quality and detail of the imagery, allowing for accurate analysis and processing. Esri Grid is a format specifically designed for use with GIS data and also represents raster data effectively without compression. This enables detailed analysis of geospatial information without the artifacts that compression can sometimes introduce.

In contrast, other options include formats that do not primarily serve as uncompressed raster data. JPEG, for instance, is a compressed format that significantly reduces file size by compromising some image quality. BMP can technically be uncompressed; however, it is less common in GIS applications compared to the other formats listed in the correct answer. Options involving document formats like PDF, DOCX, PPTX, and data formats such as XLSX, CSV, TXT, do not pertain to raster imaging or geospatial data representation, focusing instead on structured text or vector graphics. Thus, the focus on the correct formats in choice B aligns with
