What is a .XOL file?

The file extension .XOL is associated with Swiss Map Overlay, a specific map format utilized by Swiss Map software. This type of file contains detailed overhead maps of Switzerland, which include satellite images, aerial photographs, and information about the landscape's topography. These maps are useful for various purposes, including navigation, planning, and geographic studies.

To open .XOL files, you can use several programs designed for different platforms: 1. **swisstopo Swiss Map** - This is the primary software designed specifically for viewing and interacting with Swiss Map Overlay files. It is available for desktop computers.

2. **Web (Adam Schneider GPS Visualizer)** - This is an online tool that allows you to visualize .XOL files through your web browser, making it convenient for users who do not wish to install software on their computers.

3. **Android (Andreas Garzotto Swiss Map Mobile+)** - This app enables users to access and view .XOL files on Android devices, which is handy for on-the-go usage, such as hiking or traveling.

It's important to note that while the description mentions examples of .XOL files like php.xol and csharp.xol, these are likely specific use cases where the .XOL format is adapted for other types of data related to the PHP and C# programming languages. However, the primary use of the .XOL extension is for Swiss Map Overlays.

If you need to work with .XOL files, choosing the right program will depend on your device and how you intend to use the maps. Whether you are using a desktop, browsing online, or using a mobile device, there is a compatible application available.
