FAQ
SDAT to WMF Conversion
What are SDAT files?
SDAT is the data file of the SAGA GIS grid format. SAGA (System for Automated Geoscientific Analyses) is a free, open-source GIS widely used for terrain analysis, hydrology, soil science, climate studies, and other geoscientific work. A grid in this format is a map made of equal square cells, such as an elevation model, with one value in each cell. The .sdat file holds only these values in binary form, while a small text file with the same name and the .sgrd extension describes them: the size of the grid, its position, the cell size, the type of numbers, and the value that marks missing data. A history file with the .hgrd extension and a projection file with the .prj extension may accompany them. SAGA can also pack all of these files into one archive.
What are WMF files?
The WMF (Windows Metafile) format represents an image file with vector graphics, bitmap components or raster graphics, consisting mainly of drawing operations and commands. It was developed and released in the late 1980s by Microsoft and it included a 16-bit structure. In time WMF files were replaced by EMFs, featuring a 32-bit structure. WMFs are currently compatible with some programs from the Microsoft Office pack, such as Word, Power Point or Publisher.
