gprecon Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 What data file format is closest to being the standard when it comes to saving your GPS data to a PC or Mac, or using with GPS software on a PC or Mac? Would you say GPX? I'm just curious because I'm writing a little program for my computer that I might share with others, but I don't want to read GPS data from a proprietary file format. I want to use a common format this is already a standard, or close to becoming a standard to maximize compatibility. Suggestions? Quote Link to comment
+geognerd Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 I'd vote for GPX. So many programs written by different developers can read it. And with the help of GPSBabel, converting formats really isn't an issue. More about GPX can be found here. Quote Link to comment
