convert xml
« on: June 05, 2004, 05:56:19 PM »
Is there a way to convert the stock Forerunner logbook exported XML files to GPX or another format that TopoFusion can import?  I want to keep all my walks in TopoFusion but I have 8 of them still in the original Forerunner logbook.  (I had this in the Beta testing area but it probably belongs here)

Hi,

Nope, sorry there isn't an easy way to do this.  The xml used by the logbook looks very similar to GPX, so it is really unfortunate that Garmin simply did not chose to support GPX instead!

I'd email them... but there are other things to complain about their pitiful logbook program as well.  I know that "GPSVisualizer" can read the XML files, though I don't know if there is anyway to get back a GPX or other format file.
