I have a Garmin 78s marine GPS receiver and it stores tracks in GPX format. This is an XML encoded set of points giving longitude, latitude, time and sea depth. Garmin support viewing this via their Garmin Express product, but there only seem to be Windows and Mac versions. I've emailed them and await a reply. In the mean time, does anyone know of any Linux products that will emable me to view track data on a decent sized screen? I don't want to re-invent the wheel by coding up a hack myself.
Thanks, Martin
At one point in time I wrote a script that converted gpx to kml so I could view them in Google Earth but it's been years since I did that.
I don't know if Google Earth for Linux still exists.

Thanks Cameron, I'll have a play with that.

I also wrote a program, in "C", to convert gpx to kml for Googleearth (Yes it still exists for Linux). You are more than welcome to the source as a starting point if nothing else comes along.

Yes, try Route Converter, just install Oracle JRE to use it. Doesn't work well with OpenJRE/JDK (at least in Fedora)
Best,

JOSM: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/JOSM
JOSM is a great GPLed Java tool that can download/upload data from OpenStreetMap and various other sources including sat images. It works great on Linux for viewing/editing tracks too.
Its GUI is not the best in class and could take some time to get used to. But once you get familiar with its mechanism it's quite powerful.
There are other Linux tools like KDE Marble. Check out this list:

Viewing GPX on a map ?
GPX files can be viewed with several web applications. I'm using GPS for running and I use: http://www.visugpx.com/ or https://www.geoportail.gouv.fr/
For viewing gpx files on your linux box you can also use turtlesport (I use it for a while) http://turtlesport.sourceforge.net/FR/home.html

I road travel quite a bit, and have a Garmin Dezl 760D with my own profiles on there. In both of my trucks, I've got gps recievers running off raspberry pi3's, running CentOS7/armv7 images. I bring all this together on my laptop, running viking and gpsbabel under the hood.
This allows me to do all my route planning on either google-maps, google-earth, or viking and all the tracks from the different devices come together as layers. The POI tracking and specially the topo tracking on viking is pretty good. There is no viable road-route planner that works on Linux at this point though.
Thats the one thing that the garmin apps do really well. As a workaround, I've used viamichelin to good effect ( and wikiloc ); and all the tools and bits you need to track and refactor on the road, come together really well on CentOS.

Did you try routino (https://www.routino.org/) ? I have some success in planing routes (mainly on tracks) with QMapShack (https://bitbucket.org/maproom/qmapshack/wiki/Home) that uses Routino as route planner.
