SMS Bathymetry Output Files
Bathymetric point data can be exported from the Surface Water Modeling
System (SMS) software package (Figure 8-3). This is an SMS bathymetry export
file which was exported to the SHOALS format (*.pts). This is an ASCII file.
HyPAS displays an ASCII file format dialog box and defaults the values to the most
common for SMS exported files. These options may be different since SMS has
different options in exporting the bathymetry. See the Generic ASCII Format Files
section to change the parameters to meet your specific SMS exported bathymetry
files.
