Gamin to .igc format

[Chris Davison]

Anyone know of any software that will take a downloaded
Garmin tracklog and convert it into a .igc file (non
secure) so that it can be fed into Seeyou or tasknav
etc for viewing and analysis purposes?

Thanks
Chris

G7toWin works great for me. Freeware program available
from the internet (search for G7toWin to find a download
site)

Some perl hackery that will do the job - it's not pretty, but it works:
Modify as necessary, salt to taste.

Pipe the garmin data to standard in, redirect stdout to a file.

#!/usr/bin/perl -w

print "HFDTE070204\n";
print "HFFXA050\n";
print "HFPLTPILOT:Nobody\n";
print "HFGTYGLIDERTYPE:\n";
print "HFGIDGLIDERID:N2EE\n";
print "HFDTM100GPSDATUM:WGS84\n";
print "HFFTYFRTYPE:GARMIN,GPS-III\n";
print "HFRFWFIRMWAREVERSION:2.4.1\n";
print "HFRHWHARDWAREVERSION:10A817O963WP\n";
print "HFGPS:,,12,\n";
print "HFCIDCOMPETITIONID:\n";
print "HFCCLCOMPETITIONCLASS:\n";
print "HFSITSITE:\n";
print "HFTZNTIMEZONE:-8\n";

while(<>) {
chop;
($trackNum, $dateStr, $latStr, $lonStr) = split(/\t/);

if ($trackNum != 1) {
next;
}

($month, $day, $year, $hh, $mm, $ss) = split(/[\/\s:]/, $dateStr);

($latDeg, $latMin, $latSec) = split(/[d']/, $latStr);
chop($latSec);
$latMin = ($latMin * 1000) + ($latSec * 1000) / 60;

($lonDeg, $lonMin, $lonSec) = split(/[d']/, $lonStr);
chop($lonSec);
$lonMin = ($lonMin * 1000) + ($lonSec * 1000) / 60;

printf("B%2.2d%2.2d%2.2d%2.2d%5.5d%s%3.3d%5.5d%sV000000000 0\n",
$hh, $mm, $ss, abs($latDeg), $latMin, ($latDeg > 0 ? "N" : "S"),
abs($lonDeg), $lonMin, ($lonDeg >= 0 ? "E" : "W"));
}

TaskNAV read Garmin .trk files and it downloads Garmins and convert to
..igc format.

Try opening the file in SeeYou. It recognizes my Garmin filew without
any conversion.

KFLog will connect to Garmins and read out the data (and write it to an igc
file, of course). However, I guess you're looking for Windows software?
KFLog runs of different flavours of unix.

SeeYou connection Wizard has provision for Garmin with no conversion.
