Convert a file to COR

To convert other file formats to the "Electrochemistry Data" file type, you need software like VersaStudio or a similar tool.


About COR files

The .COR file extension has several distinct uses, but it is most commonly an Electrochemistry Experiment Data file created by CorrWare or VersaStudio. Scientists use these files to store impedance and corrosion testing data. The second most common use is as a Corrected GPS Data File generated by Trimble GPS Pathfinder Office. In both cases, the .COR format acts as a highly specialized data container bound to specific hardware.

The main disadvantage of the .COR format is its proprietary nature. You cannot open a CorrWare or Trimble file natively in a web browser, standard spreadsheet software, or modern cloud applications. These files lock you into expensive, niche software ecosystems. If you do not have an active paid license for the exact software that generated the file, you cannot easily view, share, or analyze the data. Furthermore, .COR files are poor choices for long-term archiving because the specialized software required to read them frequently becomes obsolete.

To make this data useful and accessible, you must convert the .COR file. For data analysis in Microsoft Excel or Python, convert the file to CSV or TXT. If you are dealing with a GPS correction file, convert it to GPX or KML for broad compatibility with Google Earth and modern GIS applications.

Convert.Guru analyzes your COR file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.

Users also converted PDF, CORRAO_FENOTIPI_DMT2, PNG, CDR, SOR, INP, EMB, DAT, ZIP, SSF and POS files.


FAQ

If you want to convert COR file to SHP, KML, KMZ, GPX, GEOJSON, TOPOJSON, TIF, TIFF, ECW, SID, IMG or DEM, you can use VersaStudio or similar software from the "Scientific Data Storage" category. In the File menu, look for Save As… or Export….

To convert LAZ, KMZ, DTM, CSV, DEM, PRJ, LAS, GPX, DSM, SHP, DBF or KML files to COR, try VersaStudio or another comparable tool in the "Scientific Data Storage" category.



The COR Converter Story

The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our COR converter.
