The ability to convert images from plan drawings, maps and other wide format documents to CAD format by means of a process is called vectorization. Generally, the logo designed for the business purpose is usually a low-resolution .JPG or .GIF file, that cant be used in traditional printing services. Vectorization is the most effective solution for digitizing vector data from image sources. A vector image is an image created by numerical coordinates that are contained within the file. Vector images can be resized with virtually no loss of resolution and are much smaller files than bitmap files. Vector conversions are traced by hand and no automated process is used to do so. A vector based drawing program is used for tracing the outlines of each shape. This vectorization process ensures that your logo/image is the highest quality. The final files are in either of these formats .ai or .eps, and .pdf formats.
Some of the many advantages of vector conversion include:
1. Size: without any loss in quality, the image can be scaled up or down.
2. Modification: A change file can be maintained and upgraded or modified.
3. Resolution: with no loss in detail, a vectorized image has no jaggedness.
4. Other applications: it can be stored and can be used for other applications.
5. Color: Vector images also allow you to change color and edit individual elements with ease.
Vector conversions enable you to convert technical drawings, maps logos and any other graphics from raster to vector formats, for easy archiving and instant access. Raster to vector (R2V) procedure can be used to process charts, drawings, maps, schemes and other similar images.

Applications areas of vectorization include:

1. Technical Drawings (AEC)
2. House plans, floor plans, garage plans
3. GIS and mapping
4. Blueprints
5. Logos
6. Vectorization for website applications
7. Vectorization for Graphic Design purposes
8. Maps and charts
9. 2D and 3D
