Using the Magellan SporTrack with EasyGPS
This allows GPS files to be handled in a more manageable way using the .GPX format. GPX files are text based and can be read into, for example, a spreadsheet. It allows the user to edit the files, insert comments, edit waypoints, merge routes etc. EasyGPS can also communicate with the GPS and extract files into the .GPX format
