GPSBabel converts waypoints, tracks, and routes from one format to another,
whether that format is a common mapping format like Delorme, Streets and
Trips, or even a serial or USB upload or download to a GPS receiver such as

authors of various programs for manipulating GPS data have imposed upon us, it
returns to us the ability to freely move our own waypoint data between the
programs and hardware we choose to use.
