BMP
The BMP file format, sometimes called bitmap or DIB file format
(for device-independent bitmap), is an image file format used
to store bitmap digital images, especially on Microsoft Windows
and OS/2 operating systems.
In uncompressed BMP files, and many other bitmap file formats,
image pixels are stored with a color depth of 1, 4, 8, 16,
24, or 32 bits per pixel. Images of 8 bits and fewer can be
either grayscale or indexed color.
