Creating a GPX file online and using with osmand for offline use

[Jeenu Viswambharan]

I use OSMAND while I'm abroad, and usually I save the locations I want to visit as favourite from my phone itself. I'm currently planning a multi-destination vacation. This trip being longer than usual, I've a longer list to mark on the map and would be quite tedious to do markings on mobile screen. I therefore wondered if I could create a GPX file online somehow, and import to OSMAND for offline use.

Any suggestions?

Thanks for pointing to a nice tool. Looking at the FAQ it appears that it works with Google Maps. Is OSM supported?

I use http://map.project-osrm.org/ to plan the routes, save them as GPX and transfer it to my mobile.

The main purpose of routeconverter.de program is dealing with GPX files that contain routes, waypoints or GPS traces.

GoogleMaps or OSM can be used an a background layer to visualize such a GPX file.

a GPX file is totally independent from any service like GoogleMaps or OSM.

If you want to plan a route by clicking on some waypoints, try for example http://brouter.de/brouter-web/

where you can save a route as GPX or other file formats.
