CATRAS, Computer Aided Tree Ring Analysis System, a database solution. The system is described by R. W. Aniol (1983).[1][2]

Although the system is able to export in various formats, it uses non-text files with the filename extension .cat. There are programs available (e.g. CONVERT5) to convert such files into tucson-format.[3]

CDendro (at least the test/development version) is able to read most Catras formatted files.
