I've attached a sample .SDF output (wailupeexport.zip) from HEC-RAS obtained from http://www.hec.usace.army.mil/software/hec-ras/downloads.aspx
More information about the HEC-RAS (Hydrologic Engineering Center's River Analysis System) application is available on the following US Army Corp of Engineers website: http://www.hec.usace.army.mil/software/hec-ras/default.aspx.
Some additional information:
- AutoCAD Civil3D supports this SDF format generated by HECRAS
