KML is the native mapping format for Google Earth and is also supported by Google My Maps and many GIS tools. Converting GPX to KML makes GPS tracks, routes, and waypoints easier to view, style, and share on those platforms.

Tracks, routes, and waypoints

GPX track and route geometry becomes KML paths, while GPX waypoints become placemarks. Coordinates, names, descriptions, and available elevation values are preserved.
