If you like nature and open-air activities then you're in luck, because GPX Editor and Google Maps have joined forces to provide a brilliant tool to edit and read GPX files. GPX Editor is a GPX (GPS Exchange) format editor that makes use of the Google Maps API. GPX is an XML format used for the exchange of GPS data (waypoints, routes and tracks) between applications (GPS) and web services on the Internet. It is used, for example, by Garmin navigation devices. Its greatest advantage is its high level of compatibility and how easily it can be converted to other formats. This application is absolutely essential for hiking enthusiasts, because it allows them to take a quick view at the routes, observe the profile of the route at each waypoint, edit data, remove or copy part of the route, view the different waypoints, etc.

Download the latest version of GPX Editor for free and make sure you never get lost again!

Apple announces the upcoming end of support for 32 bit applications in macOS. Apple has released the latest version 10.14 of macOS, nicknamed Mojave. This version fully supports Mac 32 bit applications such as MacGPS Pro.

But Apple has also made clear that Mojave will be the last version of macOS which will support 32 bit applications. The version of macOS which will be released in the fall of 2019 will not support any 32 bit applications. Only 64 bit applications will be supported.

Many 32 bit Mac applications will be updated to become 64 bit applications, normally a rather straight forward process. But MacGPS Pro at its deepest core uses map files in the PICT file format. The PICT file format was vitally important in the early days of the Mac operating system, but was largely replaced by PDF files many years ago. While PICT files remain at the core of MacGPS Pro, few other applications support PICT files today. Even Photoshop does not support them. The ability to read and write PICT format files has never been included in 64 bit versions of Mac OS X, and will not be in the future. PICT files are only accessible from 32 bit applications.

Thus MacGPS Pro with its PICT format map files has been forced to remain a 32 bit application, and cannot be updated to be a 64 bit application. The MacTopos maps that we sell for use with MacGPS Pro are in PICT format, and are not readable by any 64 bit application. To continue to use the maps you have purchased or created using MacGPS Pro beyond the fall of 2019, you should plan on keeping and maintaining Mac hardware (or a free Parallels Desktop Lite virtual machine) that can run macOS 10.14 Mojave or earlier. Every Mac sold today can run Mojave, but new Macs introduced after the fall of 2019 will come with a later version of macOS installed. Plan carefully before upgrading the operating system software of your current Mac beyond macOS 10.14 Mojave when those updates become available in future years (2019 and beyond). If you do update, you will loose access to all 32 bit applications, including your MacGPS Pro software and all of your PICT format maps, until you download the free Parallels Desktop Lite application and install macOS Mojave or earlier on its virtual machine.

For optimum resolution and seamless map stitching, we recommend our series. MacGPS Pro is also an excellent viewer for USGS & US Forest Service Digital Raster Graphic topo maps, BSB versions 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 marine charts, FAA flight sectionals, and many other digital maps. Digital maps come in two different types. Raster maps are a scanned or photographed image of a paper map. This is the type of map that MacGPS Pro uses.

Vector map files contain a mathematical description of the lines and areas that make up the map. MacGPS Pro does not support maps in vector format.

Garmin '.IMG' files are vector maps. Maps and charts in raster-image formats such as TIF, PNG, JPG, PDF, ECW, BSB (“.kap” and “.cap”), NOS/GEO, PICT, GIF, BMP, and PSD can be opened or imported into MacGPS Pro. These images will be automatically georeferenced if they are in one of the following formats: GeoTIFF, ECW, GeoPDF, or BSB.

They will also be automatically georeferenced if they are accompanied by a “world” file (“.TFW”, “.JGW”, “.GFW”, “.PGW”, or “.EWW”) with a “.PRJ” or a “.FGD” file, a '.IMP' file (a CompeGPS calibration file), a '.JPR' file (a Fugawi calibration format) or a '.MAP' file (an OziExplorer calibration file). OziExplorer OZF2 image files are not supported. Maps may be purchased, obtained by downloading them from the Internet, or by scanning them yourself. Maps can be calibrated and used on your Macintosh screen with or without a GPS receiver connected.

USGS and US Forest Service topo maps, aerial photos from the, and many other maps from diverse sources are automatically calibrated. Maps that do not contain calibration information can be manually calibrated with ease by clicking on a few known points. Check our to help find maps for your area. Please note that MacGPS Pro does not upload maps to any GPS receiver; the maps are used on the Macintosh screen. For raster maps on a handheld device, see our, and apps for the iPhone and iPad. Seamlessly stitches maps and charts together for USA, Puerto Rico, US Virgin Islands, Guam, Canadian, Australian and New Zealand (including the Offshore Islands) topo maps, ECW maps, and world-wide BSB-format marine charts.

If you have a map file already open in MacGPS Pro and open another map file with the same map projection and standard coordinates, then both maps will appear in the Map Window. Under the View menu, check “Remove Map Margins” so the margin of one map does not cover part of the adjacent map. With the margins removed, the two adjacent maps will automatically appear stitched together. Calculates your speed and travel direction based on track log locations and times. Capable of handling up to 65,000 waypoints, 250,000 track points, and 50 routes with 300 waypoints on each route. Graphically edit waypoints, routes and tracks.

Split or join track log segments. Generate Waypoints from your favorite geotagged photos. Link photos, websites or any other files to GPS waypoints.

Hide individual Waypoints, Routes & Tracks. Optional large real-time position display makes for easy viewing at a distance or a quick glance. Save GPS data as editable, tab-delimited text files for exchange with spreadsheets such as Excel, database software like Filemaker, and text-editing applications like BBEdit. Elevation feature allows you to plot the altitude profile for track logs and routes. Almost anything can be used as a map. Just scan it, save it as a TIFF or JPEG file, and georeference it with a few known points. Follow these instructions for importing your own scanned maps:.

Gpx Editing Software

Scan in any paper map. Save the scanned image as a TIFF, PNG or JPEG file. From the File menu, choose “Import” and select your file. The software prompts you to enter map data, including projection and datum. (This is typically found in the outer margins of a printed map.). The scanned image is then displayed in the map window.

Click on a known point and enter its latitude and longitude. (Refer to the MacGPS Pro Help menu).

Repeat with at least one other known point (four points is ideal). Click 'Done'. Your map is now georeferenced and ready to use. Coordinate conversions to-and-from 123 user-selectable datums and 25 map projections plus user-defined datums and grids to support maps for a broad range of countries.
