Im trying to make a dashboard on Power BI with the .dss files from simulations of HEC-HMS to show results of time series datas, but they are inside a ".dss" file and power query says that: "we don't recognize the format of the first file"

How can I open those ".dss" files inside the power query ?

see a pic: enter image description here

Thanks! Waiting help.

  • You can't, dss files are not supported, you need to convert them to a file format that PBI will use, like csv, tsv etc – Jon May 13 '22 at 07:55

This looks like what you might be looking for: HEC-DSS File and HEC-DSSVue – Gridded Data:

Quote:

HEC-DSS, USACE Hydrologic Engineering Center Data Storage System, is a type of database system to store data primarily for hydrologic and hydraulic modeling (*.dss file). HEC-DSSVue is a tool to view, edit, and visualize a HEC-DSS file. Unlike other commercial or open source databases, HEC-DSS is not a relational database: HEC-DSS uses blocks (records) to store data within a HEC-DSS file and each HEC-DSS file can have numerous blocks (records), In addition to time series data and paired data in HEC-DSS, gridded data can also be stored in a HEC-DSS file.

HEC-DSSVue can be downloaded from here: https://www.hec.usace.army.mil/software/hec-dssvue/
