FAQ
SG-GRD-Z to OBJ Conversion
What are SG-GRD-Z files?
SG-GRD-Z is a compressed grid file of SAGA GIS, a free, open-source geographic information system used for terrain analysis, hydrology, soil science, and climate studies. A grid is a map made of equal cells with one value in each, such as an elevation model. The older SAGA format keeps such a grid in several separate files: one with the values, one with the description, and often one with the projection. A file with this extension packs all of them into a single archive, which is more convenient to store, copy, and send, and which takes less space because the data are compressed. The archive can be opened in SAGA GIS like an ordinary grid, without unpacking it by hand.
What are OBJ files?
OBJ is a 3D model format created by Wavefront Technologies for its Advanced Visualizer software and now supported by almost every 3D application, which makes it one of the most common formats for exchanging models. A file of this type is plain text that describes the shape of an object: the coordinates of its vertices, the texture coordinates used for UV mapping, the surface normals, and the faces that join them into polygons. Named groups divide a model into separate parts. Colors and materials are not stored in the file itself but in a separate .mtl file that it refers to, with the texture images kept alongside. The format holds a static model only, with no animation, bones, or lights.
