What carries over from GPX to CSV

  • CSV holds one list per file: RouteConverter saves the route, track or waypoint list currently selected.
  • CSV does not tell waypoints, routes and tracks apart: it stores a plain list of positions.
  • Kept: time stamps, elevation, speed, heading, point names and heart rate.

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.

About CSV (.csv)

CSV is a plain-text table of coordinates, one row per point, with whatever columns (name, elevation, time) the source chose to export. Opened by Excel, Numbers, Google Sheets and any GIS tool that ingests tabular data.
