Using MS S&T 2010 GPX export... Request for feature

[RsH]

The S&T2010 export of a GPX file only exports the LAT and LONG for each rtept, and not the date and time. However if it is working from an imported GPX file from a different source, such as my ASUS R300, it retains each second's point and does not remove duplicates so an stop for a minute shows 60 identical positions in a row. What I need is a way to quickly see those via the SPEED column. The Speed cannot be calculated since there is no date and time information, and while when I use the ASUS R300 the interval is 1 second, if I use my GT-120 from Mobile Action, the interval can be 1 second, 2 seconds or 30 seconds, since I can set that value in that unit. So what I would like, when there is NO way to calculate speed, is a way to see if the vehicle was moving at that point in time, which RouteConverter CAN determine, since the lat and/or long are changing when it is moving, and remain the same when it is not moving. For all I care, it could be a + when the car is moving, and nothing when the car is not moving. I just want to be able to see the stops in the view on the left side of the screen, so I can look up what was at that location, without having to also load the original GPX file and try to have two separate images open. Is that possible? The other alternative is to allow me to state an interval between points so that RouteConverter can calculate the speed, since the date is NOT important for that bit of math.

I'm not sure how this could be visualized. There are a lot of requests to

• indicate speed by color
  
• bad signal quality by color
  
• draw all tracks of a file
  
• compare two tracks
  
• visualize waypoints on routes
  
• and a lot more I forgot
  

And besides that: What I'm actually doing is fighting agains the bugs in the current functionality to reduce the support requests and make the users smile.

Okay... I'll just load RouteConverter with the original GPX and Streets&Trips with the same GPX and use RouteConverter to find the point where I need to zoom in in Streets and Trips to put a pushpin or whatever <grin> instead of using the Streets and Trips GPX file. Both work. That new tab that shows elevation in profile is sort of useless to me, incidentally. The GT-120 gets too many spurious elevation readings when the car is parked, and the ASUS R300 does not even include elevation in its GPX export... and I'm not about to import elevation for a 3000km trip with a reading every second <grin>... That would overload everything on my system and likely RouteConverter too!

Give it a night to run and increase the heap size for RouteConverter
