 +===== Exporting Data from the Device =====
 +
 +In case of a GPS sport watch, the most important operation is extracting tracks from the device, usually in a gpx format.
 +Here is an example to extract all the tracks saved in the device to a single gpx file (using GPX format version 1.1):
 +<code>gpsbabel -t -i garmin -f usb: -o gpx,gpxver=1.1 -F $FILEOUT</code>
 +To extract to file $FILEOUT a single gpx track with name $TRACKNAME from a global gpx file $FILEIN containing all tracks:
 +<code>gpsbabel -i gpx -t -f $FILEIN -x track,name=${TRACKNAME} -o gpx,gpxver=1.1 -F $FILEOUT</code>
 +The extracted gpx track can then be further processed by other sw, such as ZombieTrackerGPS, or uploaded on Garmin Connect website (GPX format version 1.1 is mandatory)
