Every GPS point
One track point per IGC fix, with nothing thinned out. The point count above the download button is what you get.
IGC to GPX Converter
Turn a paragliding IGC file into a GPX track for Strava, Garmin Connect, Komoot, and most map apps. No signup, and your file stays on your device.
Conversion runs entirely in your browser. Files are never uploaded to SkyViz.

What ends up in the GPX file
Time and altitude
Each point keeps its UTC time and GPS altitude. Pressure altitude is only used for points that have no GPS altitude.
What stays behind
Pilot, glider, task, and the recorder's signature have no place in this GPX. Your IGC file is not changed, so keep it for your logbook and contests.

Frequently asked questions
How do I convert an IGC file to GPX?
Drop the .igc file on this page, check the date and point count, and click Download GPX file. You get a .gpx file with the same name.
Can I upload the GPX to Strava?
Yes. Strava imports GPX files through its upload page, and this file has a position, altitude, and time for every point. The activity shows the distance and time of your flight.
Is any data lost in the conversion?
The track itself is not: every fix is written with its position, time, and GPS altitude. Header data such as pilot and glider, pressure altitude, and the recorder's signature are not part of the GPX.
Can I submit the GPX to XContest or a competition?
No. Contests take the IGC file from your flight recorder. Keep the original and submit that. The GPX is for maps and sports apps.
Is my IGC file uploaded?
No. Your browser reads and converts the file on your device, so it never reaches SkyViz, and you don't need an account.
Why would I want GPX instead of IGC?
IGC is made for flight recorders and scoring, and most general apps can't open it. GPX is the common format for GPS tracks, so nearly every map, sports, and hiking app can read it.
