Opening an XCM File
The XCM file type is primarily associated with XCsoar.
What is an XCM file?
XCM files mostly belong to XCsoar. An XCM file can contain different kinds of data.
For instance, one form is a GIS map file used with XCsoar. In this case the file is a ZIP archive that holds map and navigation data. More details are available at XCsoar.
Another form is an XML-based file that stores Nokia network configuration details for Nokia NSP. Visit Nokia Networks for more information.
There are also versions used for medical purposes. In these files the format holds Holter monitor data used in systems like CardioSoft Holter System, CardioExplorer, or Mortara X-Scribe. Users needing to view cardiac data should use the dedicated medical software recommended by their provider, with further details sometimes found from GE Healthcare.
A smaller type of XCM file follows a markup language used in the redlining process with raster images. This version is referenced by Rasterex; more details can be found at Rasterex.
FilExt.com tips: The purpose of any given XCM file depends on its internal format. If it starts with ZIP markers you may be looking at a compressed map file, while an XML header indicates configuration or markup data. Identifying the internal structure is key to choosing the right tool for opening and viewing it.

How to open XCM files
