What are AGD files?

Last Updated: Feb 08, 2012

The *.agd file format is ActiLife’s native file format and is the desired file type for all ActiLife operations and tools such as Wear Time Validation, Data Scoring, Sleep Scoring, and Graphing. *.agd files are database files formatted for use with the popular SQLite architecture (www.sqlite.org). These files can be viewed in the ActiLife AGD viewer (available from the File menu). Alternatively, the SQLite browser (publically available on the SQLite website) can be used to browse the details of the *.agd files.
 
AGD File Schema:
 
*.agd files are created in ActiLife immediately when data from a GT1M, GT3X, ActiTrainer, or ASM device is downloaded through the “Devices” tab. These *.agd files typically contain post-filtered and accumulated data as this is the only type of data that ActiLife can properly handle. The rows in the database represent whole-number epoch summations (1s, 5s, 10s, 30s, 60s, etc.). However, at the time of this writing all GT1M, GT3X, ActiTrainer, and ASM products that have been initialized to collect raw data (12Hz or 30Hz) will produce an *.agd file on download. Although the file cannot be processed in ActiLife, the *.agd format can be exported to *.csv or *.dat through ActiLife’s import/export tool or AGD viewer tool, both accessible from the File menu.
 
GT3X+ devices product a *.gt3x file on download (see *.gt3x File Format). In order to process in ActiLife, the file must be exported to *.agd format. This can be done at the time of download by checking "Create AGD File" from the download dialog box or by using ActiLife's built-in import/export tool available from the File menu.
