Export GPS with max 1000waypoints ?
Answered
Hello,
I am using the LOCUS +BRouter to plan the track "on the way" and then I upload it using USB cradle to Garmin Fenix3 watches... But - BRouter generates the "base gpx" file only and fenix3 needs "max 1000 waypoints" + add the timestamps for every waypoint... Is anyhow possible to add the timestamps + anyhow "minimize" the number of waypoints for exporting GPX file? Is there any plan to do the connection LOCUS + www.gpsvisualizer.com, which could handle such request?
Thanks a lot,
Radek
Good day Radek,
something like this is very complicated task on phone/tablet I think. Locus or BRouter do not offer any method of simplification as I know. Also some direct connection to mentioned web site is not planned, sorry.
Maybe someone more skilled with these tasks here, will help.

Hello Radek,
i am not skilled with this task, but i have done a test.
Locus trackexport is also possible to GPSies,
and inside Gpsies on PC you are able to reduce trackpoints inside optional export dialog in two ways, limit count of trackpoints or/and smooth them.
And as i noticed also each trackpoint get a timestamp, only the year isn´t ok.
And elevation... this is another task......
Perhaps this is way for your use

As this is not a direct Garmin support forum of coarse ;-)
To know what format is working for you should be nice info to start with.
Have a look here: http://forum.locusmap.eu/index.php?topic=4178.msg42614#msg42614
If registered forum user, see the attached example files:
Are some of these files accepted if imported in the 'hidden' New files folder in the Fenix3 ?
A succes ?
Gentsesteenweg_course_navwpt_start_finish.gpx
Gentsesteenweg_course_start_finish_rtw.fit

Locus-Brouter generated gpx tracks with > + 1000 waypoints (navigationhints) ?
Exported gpx file by actual Locus have timestamped trackpoints (representing extremely low speed) but no correct corresponding-associated navigation waypoints. As all Locus generated waypoints containing the brouter generated navigation information have the same timestamp not corresponding to any trackpoint.
More specific fenix 3 info I found.
With fenix 3, you can create and follow courses, mark up to 1,000 locations and store up to 10,000 track points and navigate to them. Info from user forums indicate that for true turn by turn navigation only the garmin .fit file system format is to be imported. A suggestion and hint I noticed. Generate (RWGPS) as tcx course file inclusive navigation coursepoints and convert by external means into a .fit file to be imported into the fenix3.

Nice discussion, thanks all for contribution!
Radek, hope you now know all necessary information. Meanwhile I may suggest to vote for this idea http://help.locusmap.eu/topic/track-simplification , which wants something usable for you - reduce number of trackpoints.
