SMS:Coastline Files (*.cst)
From XMS Wiki - http://wikis.aquaveo.com/xms/
Coastline files contain x, y, z location information for arcs defining coastlines. The arcs defining a coastline can be created from ADCIRC and CGWAVE type coverages. When a Coastline file is read into SMS, feature arcs are created. If a coastline closes, the final point is not repeated. If no z-value is specified, SMS defaults the node z-value to 0.0.
Coastline files are opened through the menu File | Open and saved from File | Save As... from the Map module.
Sample File
| COAST | /* File type identifier */ |
| 2 | /* Number of coastlines */ |
| 1309 0 | /* Number of segments in coastline and if coastline closes (not closes = 0, closes = 1) */ |
| -7794.9054 3396.0346 0.0 | /* Node X, Y, Z Locations - Z is optional (defaults to 0.0) */ |
| -7822.6129 3391.8341 0.0 | |
| -7852.6508 3386.68 0.0 | |
