What format is the 'image' BLOB column in the SQlite map file?
Answered
I'm trying to convert the SQLite database into regular image tiles. I've bought a map and I'd like to convert it into a format that I can easily manipulate with e.g. Photoshop. I'm a programmer and I found it easy to retrieve the binary data with Python and a SQLite connector, but it's unclear what format the binary BLOBs are in. Could you help me out?

Good day Benjamin,
data in SQLite map database are usually basic PNG or JPEG files. Anyway, you wrote, "I've bought" ... here is a situation a little bit different. Purchased map tiles are encrypted and protected so it cannot be easily extracted from SQL file for some external processing.
Let me know if I may help here somehow, anyway method of encryption is of course not known to the public. Thanks for understanding.

Hi Menion,
Thanks for the quick response during the weekend!
That's very unfortunate. Is there some other way to print out this bought map?
Kind regards,
Benjamin

Hello Benjamin,
unfortunately, there is no possible method of how to get the whole map as a bitmap from an encrypted SQLite map file.
