Game Data

One of the most common uses of EMD files is in the gaming industry where it serves as a game data file extension for games like Dragon Ball Xenoverse. These EMD files contain 3D models used in the game, and they can be opened or modified using programs or tools like the EMD Editor or other game-specific modding tools.

Disk Images

EMD files are also used as Disk Image files by emulators like EmuParadise. These disk image files contain an exact copy of data from the original disk, which includes the data, disk's structure, and file system. Disk images are typically used when duplicating or backing up disks. They can be opened using compatible disk image editors or mounted with virtual drive software, such as DAEMON Tools Lite.

Animations

In the realm of animations, EMD files are commonly referenced as Ecological Metadata Language documents. This language is used to share and process data, models, and information amongst geospatially-oriented software applications. Tools like Esri Geographic Information System (GIS) software are capable of opening and working with EMD files in this context.

Statistical Data

EMD files are also used by SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences) for storing statistical data. These data files can be interacted with using SPSS software, which is designed for statistical analysis in social science.
