Importing HEC-2 Data

An important feature of HEC- RAS is the ability to import HEC- 2 data. This
feature makes it easy for a user to import existing HEC-2 data sets and start
using HEC-RAS immediately. To import HEC-2 data, do the following:

1. Start a new project by selecting New Project under the File menu
option on the HEC-RAS main window (Figure 3.13).

2. Select the Import HEC-2 Data option under the File menu on the
main window (Figure 3.13). A popup window will appear (Figure
3.14), which will allow you to select a drive, path, and filename for
the HEC-2 data file. Once you have selected the file, press the OK
button.

The data is automatically saved in HEC-RAS format with default names and
titles. The user can change the titles at any time by using the Rename feature,
which is available from the File menu of the various data editors.
