Split large gpx file

Would you please have any tip about how to convert the CSV temporary file into a proper track rather than a collection of waypoints? Thanks again — Dakatine.

Yes - I do this with it all the time for comedy off-roading where it's easier to recombine segments of tracks than try to use routing algorithms or to hand draw stuff. Load up the track you want to split: Right click at the point you want to split it and select menu option to split into 2 tracks: Fudgey step to get the cursor back to the one you want: Same for a second point: The tracks are listed at the right hand side.

Changing colour of tracks for clarity: Right click on track on right hand side rename first maybe and save it out as a gpx:.

Just chucking in the view of another paid for solution if that's where you are heading. RWGPS, select section and save it as a new route, if its 4 km sections, then select the km, save as, move the km, save as etc But none of the above really helps since the object is to split by point chunks, not by distance. So that uploading to Connect doesn't downsample.

The distance equivalent of points varies hugely depending on how the track was generated in the first place. For what you want, I would recommend Phil's tool. That will reduce point count very intelligently, and optionally split as well. Any further downsampling by Connect after that would be negligible. Quote from: frankly frankie on 05 March, , pm. The only Garmin devices still in circulation with a point limit are old-style Etrexes Legend, Vista or other models of pre sort of vintage - and they don't do any kind of bluetooth or NFC shenanegans.

So yes, there's something odd with the OP's workflow. I think there must be some wires crossed here. Edges can handle thousands of track points.

There would be lower limits on Route points or Waypoints. Adze can quickly break the route into different tracks or reduce your points. I will try Adze out for sure though.
