About GPS files
GPS files, crucial for storing geolocation data, come in various formats like GPX, KML, KMZ, and LOC. Each format serves different applications, from mapping to navigation systems. For instance, GPX is primarily used for GPS devices, while KML and KMZ are popular with Google Earth.
Converting GPS files involves transforming these formats into others like CSV, TSV, GeoJSON, or even Shapefiles. Software like QGIS and GPSBabel are excellent choices for offline conversion. However, conversion isn't always straightforward. Each format has unique features, and converting might lead to loss of data fidelity, especially with complex routes or metadata. Moreover, specific software expertise is required to utilize these tools effectively.
While GPS files are invaluable for geospatial data representation, they have drawbacks. They can be large, complex, and sometimes incompatible with different applications, making it challenging for everyday users to handle them without specialized tools. This is where Convert.Guru comes to the rescue. By simply dragging and dropping your GPS files onto the Convert.Guru platform, you can effortlessly convert them to your desired format with ease and reliability.
In summary, while offline tools offer robust solutions for GPS file conversion, they demand a level of technical understanding. For quick, user-friendly conversions without hassle, Convert.Guru stands out as the preferred choice. Try it now and experience seamless file conversion!
The GPS Converter Story
The history of Convert.Guru began more than 25 years ago in California, when Tom Simondi published the most comprehensive database of file formats on his website. Before that, Tom had worked on Space Shuttle development at the Air Force Systems Command’s Space Division in Los Angeles. He is known as one of the top programmers of the late 1980s.
When Microsoft integrated Tom’s Filext database into Windows XP, it became the leading platform for analyzing and processing file types and formats.
Today, we use the latest technologies to analyze, process, and convert one of the world's largest collections of file formats. We are committed to developing the best GPS converter by continuously improving quality, usability, and reliability.
