GPSBabel

GPSBabel is a super handy tool for anyone who works with GPS data. It helps you convert files that store waypoint, track, and route information between different devices or apps. Sometimes, GPS receivers and applications can't share data because they use different formats. That's where GPSBabel comes in to save the day!

Convert Between Different Formats

This free and open-source Mac application makes it easy to switch tracks, waypoints, and routes among various GPS devices like Magellan or Garmin. Plus, it works with mapping applications such as Google Earth and Garmin BaseCamp.

File Format Support

You'll be happy to know that GPSBabel supports tons of file formats! You can check out all the details on the GPSBabel Capabilities page. There's a lot you can do!

Simplify Your Data

Another cool feature is the ability to filter out duplicate points and simplify tracks—all with just a few clicks! The Input panel makes it easy to select your source file from your folder or device and pick the right format.

Customize Your Filters

The Translation Option panel lets you apply different filters. You can enable or disable options like "Preview in Google Maps," "Enable character set transformation," and "Synthesize short names." Using the Data Filters window, you can easily apply filters for tracks, waypoints, routes, and more.

Filter Your Tracks

You have control over filtering your tracks by name, duration, start time, stop time—pretty much everything! Want to split them by time or distance? No problem! You can also filter out duplicate waypoints that are in specific areas.

Edit Routes & Waypoints Easily

If you want to simplify your routes or limit them to a certain number of points, GPSBabel makes it simple. Plus, it allows you to remove routes or tracks completely if needed. You can even swap coordinates around! Transforming tracks into waypoints (and vice versa) is also a breeze.
