GAD is a .GAD file extension, belonging to the Geodict software application. This software, released by NEUMANNsoft GmbH, is a geographic information program used for generating geographic data, such as routes, points and lines for maps. It is typically used for navigation or map-making purposes.
GAD file formats are used exclusively by Geodict, and they store thematic layers designed for mapping, including points, lines, tracks, and circles with descriptions and additional information utilized by the application. These files contain an image with all the associated mapped points and layers. GAD files are specific objects composed of proprietary vector-based tiles and metadata.

Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .GAD) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .GAD extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .GAD file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .GAD extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .GAD extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .GAD file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .GAD file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .GAD file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .GAD file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .GAD file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
