Key Details compiled by FilExt.com:

Data Storage: They keep geometric and attribute information in a structured form.

GIS Integration: They work specifically with GE Smallworld software.

Usage: They support mapping, network design, and asset management tasks.

FilExt.com note: These files require a compatible GIS viewer or GE Smallworld software to open and edit their contents.
