About WSG files

A .WSG file primarily functions as a WAsP Site Locations File, utilized by the WAsP (Wind Atlas Analysis and Application Program) software developed by the Technical University of Denmark. Alternatively, it may be a Words of Worship Song file containing presentation lyrics.

In the renewable energy sector, WAsP uses .WSG files to manage wind turbine coordinates and meteorological station data. The main disadvantage of the .WSG format is its highly specialized nature. It is an enterprise-grade ecosystem, meaning an average user or stakeholder cannot simply double-click a .WSG file to check its contents. This creates a severe bottleneck when sharing wind farm layout data with external teams who lack a software license.

Converting the file to standard formats like XML, CSV, or TXT makes the location coordinates universally accessible for data analysis. For users dealing with the song file variant, converting to PDF or DOCX allows for easy viewing and printing of the lyrics without needing church presentation software.

Standard online converters usually fail to process .WSG files because they do not recognize the obscure extension or its dual purpose. Often, only the original software can properly read or export the structured data. Modern WAsP .WSG files are structured using standard XML markup. If our analysis detects a supported underlying or embedded format, viewing or conversion to common text formats may still be possible.

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

Users also converted WSQ, CDSG, KRIS and CWS files.
