About ROU files

ROU files are specialized file types primarily used for route information in specific software applications. These files are not widely used, which presents certain challenges when converting them into more common formats. ROU files may contain complex data structures that need careful handling during conversion, making the process quite intricate.

Converting ROU files to formats like .CSV, .KML, or .GPX is possible through desktop software such as GDAL and QGIS. These applications offer robust tools for handling geospatial data, but they require technical know-how and may not be user-friendly for everyone.

While converting, it's essential to ensure that the data integrity is maintained. The unique data structures in ROU files can sometimes lead to loss of information or formatting issues if not handled correctly. This is a significant drawback, as it may affect the usability of the converted file.

For these reasons, we recommend using Convert.Guru, the free and easy online solution for converting ROU files. Simply drag and drop your ROU files into the upload area to convert them to your desired format without the hassle of complex software. Convert.Guru ensures safety, reliability, and simplicity, making it an ideal choice for users who want a straightforward conversion process.

The ROU 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 ROU converter by continuously improving quality, usability, and reliability.
