What is a .FPF file?
FPF is a FLIR thermal-imaging file, storing temperature data as an image.
- Did you know
- FLIR thermal cameras record per-pixel temperatures, not just colours.
- FPF stands for FLIR Public File Format, opened up so users can analyse raw thermal data in their own software.
- After its header, an FPF holds a matrix of single-precision floating-point values, one temperature per pixel.
- What Analyser reads
- Identify camera RAW edit sidecars - Apple Photos adjustments (AAE), RawTherapee (PP3), Capture One (COS), DxO PhotoLab (DOP) and Nikon NX Studio (NKSC) - reading the applied-edit recipe, plus cinema and rare camera RAW: REDCODE (R3D), Blackmagic (BRAW), Canon Cinema RAW Light (CRM), ARRIRAW (ARI), Phantom CINE and FLIR thermal (FPF).
- Depth of analysis
- .FPF is an identification-grade format: Analyser recognises it from its bytes and decodes the header metadata it carries, rather than opening it in a full viewer. Formats that do get a full viewer are marked "Full" on the formats page.
- Open a .FPF file
- Drag a .FPF file onto the Analyser home page (or tap to pick one). It is identified entirely in your browser - nothing is uploaded, there is no account, and it works offline once installed.
