- Archivage de documents administratifs scannés (Québec)
- Intégration d'images techniques dans des publications scientifiques (Suisse)
- Conversion de textures pour des projets de design graphique (France)
Au Québec, le format RAS est parfois privilégié pour sa compatibilité avec des systèmes d'information géographique plus anciens, encore en usage dans certaines administrations. En France et en Belgique, la conversion TIM vers RAS est moins courante, mais peut être requise pour l'interopérabilité avec des logiciels spécialisés dans l'imagerie scientifique ou industrielle.
