Extract text from F01 files
To convert your F01 file to another format, you need HEC-RAS or other Data software.
To convert other file formats to the "Simulation Data" file type, you need software like HEC-RAS or a similar tool.
The .f01 file extension is primarily associated with Steady Flow Data used in hydraulic engineering, though it also serves as a transaction format for banking systems in the Philippines.
In the context of HEC-RAS (Hydrologic Engineering Center's River Analysis System), the .f01 file contains critical steady flow information, including boundary conditions, flow profiles, and reach locations required for river analysis simulations. These files are typically plain text (ASCII) but follow a rigid, column-based structure that is difficult to interpret without the proprietary software. Engineers frequently need to convert these files to Excel (.XLSX) or CSV to manipulate the raw data, or to PDF to share flow reports with stakeholders who lack access to the specialized HEC-RAS environment.
A secondary but significant use is within the Bank of the Philippine Islands (BPI) ecosystem, where .f01 files act as Bank Payment Collection or payroll transaction logs. These are often legacy flat files used for bulk uploads or clearing. Users often struggle to view these files securely on modern devices and need to convert them to PDF for archiving or Spreadsheet formats for auditing.
Less commonly, .f01 appears as a Parts List report generated by EPLAN, a solution for electrical engineering.
Convert.Guru analyzes your F01 file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
Users also converted R01, HYD, G01 and F03 files.
If you want to convert F01 file to CSV, JSON, XML, YAML, YML, TOML, INI, CFG, CONF, DAT, DB or SQL, you can use HEC-RAS or similar software from the "Steady Flow Data Storage" category. In the File menu, look for Save As… or Export….
To convert DBF, XML, SQLITE, XLSX, SQL, TSV, ACCDB, YAML, MDB, CSV, ODS or JSON files to F01, try HEC-RAS or another comparable tool in the "Steady Flow Data Storage" category.
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 F01 converter.
