    I'd imagine some sort of CAD program. It actually sounds vaguely familiar but I can't say one way or another.

    If it's coordinates there's a good chance it might just be a comma or tab separated text file at the back of it all.

    It might be worth making a copy of the file and opening that copy with notepad just to view the contents.
