Import txt

Yellow94

hello

I have a gpslogueur on blackberry (1HZ, :-( ) which carries trace format (KM, GPX and CSV), I try to convert it to TXT or NMEA can import them into "RaceChrono".
I do not have tools to do so, if you can help me?

If I change the trace CSV replace "," by "" the import goes well but I have no trace time on "racechrono" ..

Thank's for your help.

Search for gpsbabel software to convert GPX to NMEA.

ok,but what is the output format?
DeLorme.. txt
fugawi.. .txt
Garmin MapSource .txt
GEOnet Name Server .txt.
GPSBabel arc filter file .txt
...

thanks

NMEA 0183. If you get different extension, you can just rename to .txt or .nmea.

You need $GPGGA and $GPRMC sentences. You can probably configure GPSBabel to output them.

Hi aol,

Gps track converted by gpslabel contains these fields but not at the beginning of the file.

but no trace route appears on RaceChrono if i convert my original trace (gpx) en kml..it's ok on google earth..

the trace nmea is not valid for racechrono? can you give me the necessary fields for racechrono and their meaning?

Thanks's for your help

aol_of_RaceChrono

The $GPGGA quality field should be 1 or 2, not 0. The line:

$GPGGA,231615.888,4848.287,N,00225.005,E,0,04,7.8,90.000,M,0.0,M,,*58

Should be:

$GPGGA,231615.888,4848.287,N,00225.005,E,1,04,7.8,90.000,M,0.0,M,,*58

Can you force the quality field to 1 in GPSBabel?
