DAT-Format

Wave | Development

The DAT file extension is used by several applications.

HYDRO_AS-2D

HYDRO_AS-2D simulation result files include the files Q_strg.dat and Pegel.dat, both of which can be imported by Wave.

Sample Q_Strg.dat:

Notes:

• Wave only checks whether the filename is either Q_Strg.dat or Pegel.dat in order to assess whether the file is a HYDRO_AS-2D file.
• Wave converts the simulation times to dates after Jan 1st, 2000, i.e. simulation time 10 h becomes 01.01.2000 10:00:00

SWMM

SWMM5 also uses the DAT file extension. Wave can currently only export SWMM DAT-files.

Hystem-Extran

Hystem-Extran also uses the DAT file extension, but the file format is identical to the REG-format.
