Thanks. Found info on that file format:

* https://openslide.org/formats/aperio/

* https://web.archive.org/web/20120420105738/http://www.aperio...

Pages 14 onward give the info. Seems like it's a variation of TIFF, in tiled format.

Main tile (image) size is 120k x 80k. That's huge!

29GB when saved uncompressed. I'd hope most applications would use the optional compression features. :)

This was 360 degree mosaic, about 100kX100k
