[OSM-talk] OpenStreetMap newbie - help/guidance to convert OSM XML data to .gpx

[Ángel de Vicente]

Hi Paul,

sorry, let's see if I can explain myself better. The attachment in my
previous mail is what I got from the page https://mapmatching.3scale.net/

That file contains good data but in a format that I don't know how to deal
with. I would like only to convert that .xml file to a .gpx file with
latitude and longitude coordinates. But when I try to open with JOSM that
file (output.xml), it complains that no data was found (and thus I don't
see any Convert option when I right click the "output.xml" layer.

I hope now it is a bitt more clear.

Thanks a lot
Angel de Vicente
