GPS Utility

The GPS Utility program is a highly useful tool for manipulating and mapping GPS (Global Positioning System) waypoints, route, and trackpoint data. The latest version, 5.51, continues the tradition of excellence established by its developer, GPS Utility. The software is available for free download, offering users the capability to print, plot, map process, and manage GPS data in a variety of datums and map projections.

For those who require transfer of GPS information between a GPS receiver and a PC or file, GPS Utility excels in this area as well. The program file size is 2.2 MB, making it a lightweight yet powerful addition to your System Utilities and Device Assistants arsenal. The program supports Windows 7, 10, and 11, ensuring compatibility with most modern operating systems.

Several other versions of this program, such as 5.3, and 4.5, are also available for those who might need an alternative. Noteworthy program file names include GPS Utility.exe, gpsu455.exe, and gpsu502.exe. GPS Utility provides a Demo license, allowing users to preview its capabilities before making a purchase.

One standout feature of the software is its ability to transfer data to and from a number of other programs, adding to its flexibility.
