Turn GPS tracks, routes and waypoints into a KML file that opens in Google Earth. Free, private and processed right in your browser.
Three steps, no software to install. Works on Windows, macOS, Linux and mobile.
01
Drop a .gpx file into the converter, or click to browse. Files up to 100 MB are supported.
02
Click Convert to KML. The file is processed locally, so your data is never uploaded to a server.
03
The KML file downloads straight to your device. Need another format? Pick a converter below.
Converted your GPX file? Upload it to GISCARTA and turn it into an interactive map your team or clients can actually use.
Colour by attribute, cluster thousands of points, switch on 3D.
Charts and key numbers next to the map, updated as you filter.
Animate dated features and compare how places change.
Publish a read-only map, embed it on your site, or keep it private with role-based access.
No credit card. No GIS degree. Upload your data and start mapping in minutes.
GPX is built for exchanging GPS data between devices and apps. KML is built for viewing and sharing in Google Earth.
GPX
GPX (GPS Exchange Format) is an open, XML-based format for GPS data. A single file can hold waypoints, routes and tracks, with coordinates in WGS84 latitude and longitude.
Almost every GPS device, sports watch and outdoor app exports GPX, which makes it the default format for sharing recorded trips. Because it is plain XML, large track logs get bulky and slow to search.
KML
KML (Keyhole Markup Language) is an XML format created for Google Earth and adopted as an OGC standard in 2008. It stores placemarks, paths and polygons together with their styles and descriptions.
KML is the easiest way to show geographic data to people who don't use GIS software, but it is built for display rather than analysis.
Your GPX file
Waypoints, routes and tracks come through as separate layers; track points keep their elevation and time.
The KML output
KML only supports WGS84, so coordinates are written as longitude/latitude.
Your file never leaves your device: conversion runs in your browser, for files up to 100 MB.
Let clients and colleagues explore GPX data in Google Earth — no GIS skills needed.
Import the file into Google My Maps to annotate it and share a link.
Turn GPX data into a clear, styled visual for meetings and reports.
Every converter runs in your browser and keeps your files on your device.
