<p class="MsoNormal">Brian Pierce, the past GIS administrator at DACS who suffered a stroke – asked if I can cut a GPX or XML file into segments to load back into his Garmin ETrex. The entire file is too large.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have Google Earth and Topographix (demo) on my PC. I can bring up the tracks and in topographix I can get an ID of tracks and waypoints, but I cannot divine a way to break this ~ 180 mile path into three or more subtracks. In Google
Earth I see the track and a list of waypoints, but I can’t find the waypoints from skipper bay to Steinhatchee, although the path is displayed.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I could bring it into ArcGis and do it, but I’d lose the formatting it needs for Garmin.

<p class="MsoNormal">Has anyone in SHRUG land worked with Garmin’s GPX or KML files? Simply displaying the track is easy, manipulating it less so.
