Editing a Lowrance HDS .USR file
Posted on 2010-09-04
I'm wanting to open a file for editing. They are waypoint and route files for Lowrance HDS units and I am not sure what they are written in. What I would like to do is open them in a text editor type program so that I can search and replace text pointing to the icons to use to multiple points at once and add remove multiple points at once.
The only clue I have is one site that refered to the files as being in "vector" format.
Can anyone help to identify what it is written in or how I can open it and save it in an ediing program?

EE offers us the ability to attach a file. It is much less annoying than Rapid Share. Going forward, you might want to use the EE tools. I looked at the file, and I can't really add much to the AUSFish link. Files named .usr are often binary data bases of some sort.

The file is captioned "Navico export data file"

It looks like there may be some version dependent characteristics to these files. You might want to contact Navico / Lowrance directly to see what they can tell you about how to process the file -- it might be faster than trying to research it yourself.
Good luck with your project, ~Ray
