Gpsbabel convert gpx csv windows#
But at least now I have a solution under windows with the Garmin POI Loader.Assuming you really do want to go from kml to csv (rather than kml to gpx), you can do it in one step. As for the Extra POI Editor, I found it very unstable on a few different machines, and it did not cope well with large datasets.

It supports a wide number of GPS data files as input and output including GPX, FIT, KML, TRK, RTE, LOG, ASC, CSV, etc. "No valid waypoints/routes/tracks translation specified"ĭoes anyone know how I can convert my CSV postcode data into gpi, so that it works with OSM on my garmin?
