What is a DG2 file

DG2 files mostly belong to Hypack. Your DG2 file is a Hypack hydrographic survey data file. It is used to store measurements and survey details recorded during hydrographic operations. The data inside is encoded in UTF-8, which helps maintain text consistency across different systems.

It holds geographical coordinates, water depths, and other survey parameters.

The file is designed for use with specialized survey software.

A text editor may display the raw contents, but proper data analysis requires Hypack.
