I just found how to make a new thread, sorry for posting this twiceWinGDB3 version 3.3 available for download!Now version 3.41 is availableSee last messageWinGDB3 is a program, that can do all kinds of conversions for waypoints, routes and tracks using the files from MapSource.From now you can download the latest version 3.3 from my website www.sackman.info.The main improvements are:1. route- and trackfilter. It is now possible to reduce the number of route- and trackpoints during the conversion.2. GPX support. Input files with tracks can now be in gpx format.3. New option for the Zumo (and Nüvi 550). Tracks can now be converted to routes with invisible via points.4. Track to track conversion with filterfunction.5. WinGDB3 is now Vista compliant.6. Drag&drop of the input file.7. Preview of input in MapSourceFurthermore the screen is partly redesigned, The MapSource implementation is simplified and a problem with conversions around the 0-meredian is solved.I wish everybody lot of fun with the use of this version of WinGDB3 and you're welcome to report problems to [email protected] Edward thank you very much for a great little program. Using your program in conjunction with GPSBabel provides the ability to convert tracks and routes from just about any source to a format usable by almost any GPS that will load a route or a track. Jim in Sacramento Just grabbed a download myself. Now I just need to figure out what it does. Duende;millions of thanks.This wingdb3 helped me a great deal.It lost all viapoints on the route and made the route more visible.Before this program, I was unable to download and see the route on the unit.It's OK now. And? What does it do for you? Edward I still haven't had a crack at it, but from what I read I'm hoping it will convert garmin tracks to routes for me and vice-versa. I'm still new to all this so I'm trying most anything and everything to see what's useful. Does the new version support Garmin Version 3 files? That was my main issue with the old program - I had to convert all my data to Version 2.Thanks for a great utility! One thing I don't like about wingdb is that it doesn't support .kml, unlike trackmaker.If it did, everything would be much easier and quicker. I believe that is what GPSBAbel is for. The WinGDB program is a program that is designed specifically to work with Garmin Routes and Tracks and convert one to the other. Like GPSBabel it has a clean interface and is quite simple to use and it

Craigwunread,Mar 30, 2011, 2:18:04 PM3/30/11to MapInfo-LI've posted similar questions before, but just wanted to see if therewas any new advice out there.Q: Would anyone know of a tool to direct import/export GPX files toMapInfo (8.5)?I still find the difficulties in linking GPS to GIS (MIPro) reallyhard to understand (the current 'link' is via two garmin programs andediting in excel). I dont care whether its Garmin's or MI's issue, ijust think its a no-brainer that gps-gis interchange should be a keyfacility in both.cheersCPhil Wyattunread,Mar 30, 2011, 2:44:36 PM3/30/11to [email protected] Craig,I couldn't agree more, although it has got a lot easier in 10.5 with the Blue Marble Graphics interface (for just straight download versus real time tracking). I still struggle with GPS -> GIS and back to GPS. I use a combination of things. I generally create KML files of objects using the standard export to Google functions. I then created a batch file that uses GPSBabel to upload the kml to my GPS. The advantage of this is no issue with datums/projections.Also look out for gpx2tab - a mapbasic function to import gpx files.On the reverse side of the equation you can also create a batch file for GPSBabel to download from gps to GPX and then use the gpx2tab to get it into Mapinfo.Garfile is slowly going out of fashion as Garmin keeps changing protocols (It won't work with newer GPS's like 62S). having said that , neither does Blue Marble Graphics work with the 62S. They have indicated it might be supported in a future release but no dates yet.Of course, good old OziExplorer will handle just about anything and will create shapefiles for you that you can read immediately in MapInfo. I use that in 90% of the time if data is just being viewed and not manipulated.

This form reads a tracklog or waypoint file (in a recognized format) or plain-text tabular data, and converts it to an easy-to-read tab-delimited or CSV text file, or to a GPX file.Addresses: If you want to find the coordinates of a list of street addresses, it may be easier to use the geocoding utilities. If, however, you have ZIP codes, postal codes, or cities & states, this form is the right tool to use -- but be sure to include a valid header row! (See the waypoint tutorial for more info.)Google Earth: If you want to generate a KML or KMZ file for Google Earth, use the Google Earth mapping form.Leaflet/Google Maps: To generate an HTML map, use the Leaflet or Google Maps form.Non-compatible formats: If this conversion program cannot read your file, it's possible that GPSBabel will be able to. (GPSBabel also has a wider range of output formats.)
