What is dss file? How to open dss files?
File type specification:
The dss file extension is used for in special format used by The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ Hydrologic Engineering Center Data Storage System, called HEC-DSS.
HEC-DSS is a database system designed to efficiently store and retrieve scientific data that is typically sequential.
Such data types include, but are not limited to, time series data, curve data, spatial-oriented gridded data, and others. The system was designed to make it easy for users and application programs to retrieve and store data.
HEC-DSS is incorporated into most of HEC’s major application programs.
