About Microsoft Excel (.xlsx)

Excel is a binary spreadsheet — one row per position, one column per field — the shortest path from a GPS track to a table you can sort, filter and chart. RouteConverter reads and writes both the legacy .xls and the modern .xlsx generation. Opened by Microsoft Excel, LibreOffice Calc, Numbers and Google Sheets — wherever GPS data needs analysing rather than navigating.

About GPX (.gpx)

GPX (GPS Exchange Format) is an open XML format for waypoints, tracks and routes, with optional time, elevation and extension fields. It's the universal GPS interchange format — read and written by Garmin Connect, Google Earth, OsmAnd, Strava, komoot and nearly every GPS app or device made since 2004.
