Record marked as obsolete and not updated for a long time.
The aia file extension identifies an ANDI data file. ANDI, or Analytical Data Interchange, is a format for exchanging analytical instrument data, including chromatography and spectrometry results.
An aia file contains chromatography data intended for use by compatible chromatography or analytical-data software. It is an interchange format rather than a document intended for general-purpose applications.
The format is obsolete, and support depends on legacy chromatography software that implemented the ANDI specification.
Open an aia file with the chromatography or analytical-data software that created it, or with another legacy program that supports the ANDI format. Support is dependent on the software and operating system; modern general-purpose applications normally cannot open these files.
If the original software is unavailable, a laboratory or instrument-data system with ANDI import support may be required to read the file.
There is no dependable universal converter for obsolete ANDI aia files. If compatible chromatography software can read the file, use its export function to save the data in a format such as CSV or another format supported by the receiving system.
When no compatible reader is available, conversion may not be possible without access to the original instrument software or a specialist data-recovery service.
