It is explained in a simple way on wiki,

The JDBC type 1 driver, also known as the JDBC-ODBC bridge, is a database driver implementation that employs the ODBC driver to connect to the database. The driver converts JDBC method calls into ODBC function calls.

The driver is platform-dependent as it makes use of ODBC, which in turn depends on native libraries of the underlying operating system the JVM is running upon.
