ODG is a file extension for the OpenDocument (ODF) file format which is an XML-based file format. The OpenDocument file format is used in the creation of charts, spreadsheets, presentations and in word processing applications. XML is simply known as Extensible Markup Language which means, marking up data and encoding it into a file which is readable by both humans and machines. The ODG file extension is used in graphics and stores vector graphics in standardized XML. It was first developed by the OASIS (Organization For The Advancement Of Structured Information Standards) and is meant to be used in other OpenOffice documents for storing texts, charts, spreadsheets and various graphical elements. When it was first created, the extension was used as a specification in the Apache OpenOffice suite, being one of the first office suites to offer and support the use of ODG files.
The .gif filename extension refers to the GIF graphical file format created by CompuServe in 1987. The format is from the class of raster graphics which uses a dot matrix type data structure of orthogonally placed pixels, each with their own color information. The file format has a rich history of usage in storing sprite data for video games especially those released in the early 90's. The GIF format has also been used in low-resolution animation clips distributed over the internet, and in design of sharp-edged art that utilize a palette of a few colors up to a max of 256 colors. The GIF file format has its advantage in its compression technique, which limits file size but does not compromise image quality. The file format natively opens on many of the popular web browsers.

Users can draw elements, create vector graphics and make drawings, graphic elements, and export them as an ODG file type. ODG files can be shared across different file sharing platforms like Google Drive or Dropbox. The drawings created are XML-formatted and can be used in other OpenOffice application programs. ODG files are also used in the creation of digital illustration and vector graphics; the files are made using an application called "Draw" which is part of the Apache OpenOffice Suite.
The GIF format is formally specified in the GIF89a Specification released in 1989 and maintained by the World Wide Web consortium. The format uses the Lempel-Ziv-Welch data compression algorithm to create a single lossless file of multiple images known as frames. The GIF file format has a structure of blocks composed of control, graphics rendering, and special purpose blocks. The blocks begin with the header block, followed by the logical screen descriptor block, the graphic control block with the actual image and or text, and finally the gif trailer marking the end of the file.
