FAQ
XTF to HRU Conversion
What are XTF files?
XTF is the XML transfer file of INTERLIS 2, the Swiss standard for exchanging geographic data. It holds the actual data of a delivery, for example the parcels, buildings, and land cover of a municipality, in readable XML text, while the rules that the data follow, such as which classes of objects exist and what their attributes mean, are written in a separate model file with the .ili extension. Because the data are tied to the model, a program can check automatically whether an XTF file is complete and correct, which is a requirement for official Swiss data such as the cadastral survey and the public-law restrictions on land ownership. XTF files are used in Switzerland and also in other countries that have adopted INTERLIS.
What are HRU files?
The HRU file format is a bitmap image format associated with the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT), which is a model developed through the SWAT-CUP program in Microsoft Windows. This software generates a detailed simulation model aimed to assess the result of various land management techniques in the case of large-size watersheds. HRUs represent output files containing detailed information compiled through SWAT, generally under the form of extensive tables with a large number of variables.
