The TED file extension is associated primarily with the Alamo software, and more specifically, the Alamo Map File. Developed by SOF Environmental Inc., Alamo is a mapping and desktop geographic information system (GIS) platform. Alamo enables users to create data projects throughout the USA that are compatible with many File Geodatabase and Shapefile formats.
The TED file stores Tabular Environmental Data prepared in the Tabular ASCII Data (TAD) format in the ArcInfo Working Set or in a Grid Cover. It is generated when the user converts a tabular data set between eight available formats, making use of TAD's header and basic editing/viewing capabilities, including display and map making functions.
Format Specifications
The TED file stores headers in a *.hed file, which contains column labels, descriptions and statistics etc. for the tabular data. The main information is then stored in a *.tad file which contains the value of each variable for each row separated by spaces and/or commas. This allows for direct usage by programs other than Alamo. In addition, TED includes graphics files ( GRF, PNT, & PI1) as well as versions of other previously generated graphical output ( STD, FDO, & FDF) that can be made at anytime.
Similar File Types
Other file extensions related to Alamo include ARX, SHX, DBF, PRJ, .MAP, .DAT, and .TIF.
Programs for WINDOWS system
Programs for MAC system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .TED) 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 .TED 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 .TED 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 .TED 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 .TED extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .TED file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .TED 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 .TED file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .TED file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .TED file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
