Export GPX/KML elevation data

VFRnav Support
1

Hello,

I have tried to display a track in Google Earth. However, I have two problems:

  1. the KML is not accepted by Google Earth (with the error message: unsupported elements gx:Track)
  2. when I view the KML or GPX in another tool (e.g. maps3d.io), I only see the track “flat” on the surface. However, I would like to display it as an elevation profile.

Am I doing something wrong? Can someone give me a tip on how to achieve the desired display?

Best regards

Hi,

Which version of Google Earth are you using? I have a (presumably) older version of Google Earth Pro on a Windows PC and regularly use the KML export. So far without any problems.

I can’t really contribute anything to the topic, but I’ll just say a warm welcome to the forum :grinning_face:

Thank you both. And hello from my side, too :slightly_smiling_face:.

The tip on the Google earth version is perfect! I used the online-version via Webbrowser. This does not seem to work.

However: I downloaded the iOS app and this works perfectly fine.

Thanks again!
