GPSU Olex File Converter Description
GPSU Olex File Converter is a speedy and easy-to-use software application that gives you the possibility to convert files between Olex (.txt) and GPS Utility format (.gps). Olex is the Norwegian software system for navigation, fishery plotting and ocean mapping.
It tries to copy as many attributes as possible from the source, as long as they are compatible with both applications. The tool offers support for batch mode and contains a couple of customization preferences for GPSU to Olex conversions.
Simple setup and interface
Installing this program is a fast job that shouldn’t give you any trouble. It’s packed in a classical interface made from a single window that shows all options available, so you can quickly figure out how it works.
Set the conversion mode
After selecting the conversion type between between Olex to GPSU and GPUS to Olex, all you have to do is specify the source file along with the destination directory and file name (same as the source or custom), and click a button to immediately start the conversion operation. In batch mode, the tool is able to create multiple files from the same source
Configure Olex settings
In case of GPSU to Olex conversion, the software utility lets you customize Olex preferences when it comes to the number of waypoint and trackpoint layers, along with the track color. Plus, it can be asked to write a single route only.
An important aspect worth taking into account is that, although the freeware edition is not time limited, it only lets you convert up to 20 waypoints. This restriction can be lifted by purchasing a full license.
Evaluation and conclusion
We haven’t encountered any issues in our tests as far as stability is concerned, thanks to the fact that the app didn’t hang, crash or prompt errors. It carried out conversion tasks swiftly while remaining light on system resources consumption.
Although it doesn’t have rich features or configuration settings, GPSU Olex File Converter provides you with a quick and effective method to converting files from Olex to GPS Utility format and vice versa.
