The SSF (Trimble Standard Storage Format) File extension is a data file developed and used by Trimble, a surveying, mapping and positioning technology company. Trimble's SSF file is associated with the company's enterprise platform that includes data collected via its various handling and recording systems, such as the Trimble Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS), Real Time Kinematic data, and other Trimble-branded devices. The files are categorized under Data Type Files.
File Structure
The structure of an SSF file contains two main components: the "header block" which holds metadata and the "data block" which stores sensor data. Data is stored in the same ordering processes as during collection with the header containing information specific to each file, such as latitude, longitude, year created, version numbers .ssf file originates from and the source of device and software used for collection. The two blocks follow a format specifically designed for records of mechanical time and speed during travel in terms of locations. The header information includes details like the version number which reveals characteristics related to the software versions both on hand at time of data capture, design original date of collection, serial number, and copyright information.
Similar File Extensions
The SSF file format is quite unique in its structure but somewhat related file extensions include .jps, .tfw, .e00, .kml, and .gpx. All these formats vary in purpose but are utilized to capture certain types of geographical location information.
Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .SSF) 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 .SSF 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 .SSF 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 .SSF 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 .SSF extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .SSF file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .SSF 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 .SSF file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .SSF file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .SSF file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
