To import spectral data into SMS, do the following:

{|class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" style="width:100%; border:1px solid #D0E0FF; margin-bottom:0.4em;"
|-
!style="text-align:left;"|1. Open spectral data files.
|-
|
:#Use [[SMS:File Menu|''File'' | '''Open...''']] to open files with spectral data such as STWAVE ENG files (*.eng), STWAVE nesting files (*.nst), [[SMS:CMS-Wave Spectral Energy File|CMS-Wave ENG files (*.eng)]], CMS-Wave nesting files (*.nst), BOUSS-2D directional wave spectrum files (*.dws), and coastal data information program files (*.cdip).
:#Alternatively, [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drag_and_drop drag and drop] the file into the Graphics Window in SMS.

{|class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" style="width:100%; border:1px solid #D0E0FF; margin-bottom:0.4em;"
|-
!style="text-align:left;"|2. Create a [[SMS:Spectral Coverage|Spectral coverage]].
|-
|
:All spectral data needs to be a spectral coverage. Opening a file with spectral data will cause the ''Spectral Coverage'' dialog to appear where a spectral coverage can be created. If this does not appear, create a coverage with the Spectral type using the steps below:

|-
!style="text-align:left;"|3. View spectral data.
|-
|
:#Double-click on a point in the spectral coverage using the [[SMS:Map Module Tools#Select Feature Point|'''Select Feature Point''']] [[File:SMS Select Node Tool.svg|15 px]] tool.
:#View spectral data in the [[SMS:Spectral Energy|''Spectral Energy'']] dialog.
|}


Alternatively, spectral data can be imported to a specific location in the project.
