    Tsunami .ovr files are text files for storing vector data, like line and point features. Global Mapper can both import .ovr files using the File->Open Data File menu command and also export loaded vector data to .ovr files using the File->Export Vector->Export Tsunami OVR menu command.

    Let me know if I can be of further assistance.

    Thanks,

    The Tsunami software packages that works with OVR files is something developed by the US Navy I believe. It is used by the US Navy and their contractors. I don't know of any software other than that and GM that can use OVR files.

    Let me know if I can be of further assistance.
