Tracks become paths, routes become paths, waypoints become placemarks, each with its name and description. Elevation is kept in the coordinates.
What does not carry over?
Timestamps and heart rate have no place in a plain KML path, so they are left out; open the GPX in the GPX viewer to see them.
What is a GPX file?
GPX is the GPS Exchange Format from Garmin devices, watches and phone apps: tracks, routes and waypoints with elevation and time.
Is it free? Is there a size limit?
Free, with no account. There is no upload limit because nothing is uploaded; very large files (hundreds of megabytes) are limited only by your browser's memory.
Is there an app?
Not for this tool yet. The nearest is GPX Explore, on iPhone, iPad and Mac, which opens any GPX file with the track coloured by grade, every sensor charted and a workout summary. Free. App Store · Mac App Store · More about GPX Explore
