HI!
Just used the RouteConverter. I am impressed by the easy to use of this program! I have one question here:
Is it possible to write .tk1 file?
Danke!

If you mean the
Wintect 201 fileformats with .tk1 then the answer is no. Since I don't own such a device implementing writing is pretty difficult for me. But I'm accepting patches...
What is the use case behind writing a track logger format like the Wintect 201 format?

The wintec_201 series is a very convenient GPS tracker which enable easy Geotag for the photos. This program (TMX) from Wintec (
http://wintec.com.tw/~download/support_f...v2.7.1.exe) will take the file format of .tk1 (which is generated by the wintec 201 series GPS tracker) then use this info for Geotag photos.
The program (TMX) will also convert the .tk1 file into several formats like .gpx for other program to use. However, once converted to .gpx, it's not possible to covert back to .tk1. Thus, if the .tk1 file is lost (which default was saved in a temporary folder), or need to manipulate the route info before Geotag (usually with .gpx format), it's not possible to Geotag with this program. (TMX is quite good at automatic Geotag a lot of photos at once, however it doesn't read anything other than .tk1)
Thus if a one can convert back to .tk1, it will make the archive/manipulate route before geotagging much more easier.
Danke!

Hi lssong,
such a program would be very helpful. Unfortunately, the link does not work and Google does not help either... please double check the URL!
