Free GPX editor software, based on Google Earth

[slapnpop]

So, here's a new GPX/KML editing software that's available for free. It's based in part on Google Earth, so you can see the GPX files overlaid on a few different backgrounds, and get elevation views etc. There are some good tools to edit the tracks, reduce the file size, and manage multiple tracks in "sets".

Website

It's also tied into a community sharing site for off-road trails, www.ohvtrails.net. You dual-sporters can download files of shared off-road rides, or upload and share your own.

Let me know what you guys think, or if you have any good comments for development! :yahoo:

Very cool, thanks for the link.

It's interesting, and very responsive. But I wonder if there's a "Snap to roads" feature? I recognize it's designed for trail riding, but this roads thing my be useful. (Google Earth has paths, but they don't snap to. Google maps snaps to, but it's slow and painful to draw a route.)

Thanks for the share.

Slappie, are you one of the developers?

 

[slapnpop]

No. I helped with the hardware it's intended to be used with.

No. I helped with the hardware it's intended to be used with.

And what hardware would that be, or is that cat still in the bag?

Cat's been out of the bag for the better part of a year, but this forum isn't the place for it. You can browse the site that has the software available, and it should be pretty obvious.
