Viewing .gpx track file - CrashTack - 05-25-17 10:02 AM
OK, I'm stumped. Searched the forum but can't find the answer.
I downloaded the data from my e7 to a card and now have it on my Windows 10 laptop.
Many programs have promised to show me my tracks, but none has succeeded.
Google Earth came closest, at least loading the waypoints.
I downloaded the Raymarine Voyage Planner, but it seems to need a purchase even to view the existing file.
So, how do I view .gpx tracks on my computer?
Thanks in advance...Ralph

Ralph,
As you have suggested Raymarine offers and recommends Raymarine Voyage Planner for use in waypoint/route planning and archival with its MFDs. Raymarine has also recently added support for tracks within Voyage Planner. That said, Voyage Planner requires a license key which may be purchased for a nominal fee through the Raymarine’s Charts Store. As Raymarine's latest generation of MFDs support exporting waypoints, routes, and track in the relative universally supported GPX file format most other third party navigational software products which support importing tracks from a GPX file may also be used for this purpose. If seeking a zero cost product having such support, you may want to look at OpenCPN, as I have read a post within another forum that it may support this feature.
