Real pins from a real Google Maps list, already converted to GPX, KML, GeoJSON, and CSV. Download any of the four and see exactly what your own list will look like once you convert it.

See what you'll get

GPX

For Garmin, Gaia GPS, OnX, and most GPS apps. Each place becomes a <wpt> waypoint with a name and exact coordinates, plus a <desc> with the address and/or your notes when either is available.

Download sample .gpx

KML

For Google Earth. Each place becomes a <Placemark> with a name, a <Point>, and a <description> with the address and/or your notes when either is available.

Download sample .kml

GeoJSON

For GIS tools and mapping software. Each place becomes a Point Feature with name, address, notes, and description properties (the last three blank when there's nothing on file). description holds the same text as notes, because some apps, such as Organic Maps, read only description and ignore notes.

Download sample .geojson

CSV

For spreadsheets. One row per place: name, latitude, longitude, notes, list_name (this list's title, the same on every row until you merge files from more than one list), exported_on (the date you converted the file), and location_url (opens Google Maps at that point).

Common questions

Where does this sample data come from?

A public Google Maps list of 17 well-known U.S. landmarks, used here only to show real output. It isn't tied to any personal account, and converting your own list never touches this sample data.

Do these sample downloads count against my free waypoint limit?

No. These are pre-built sample files, not a live conversion, so downloading them doesn't use any of your free or paid waypoint allowance.

Will my own converted file look exactly like this?

Yes, same structure, same builder logic MapsLinkQuest uses for every real conversion. Your own place names, coordinates, and notes will replace this sample list's data. GPX, KML, and GeoJSON downloads also carry a street address when Google has one on file for a place; CSV doesn't include an address column. Address coverage varies from place to place and we haven't found a reliable way to predict which ones will have it, so don't be surprised if a well-known spot on your own list comes back without one.

Can I open these files without a GPS device?

Yes. GPX and KML open in Google Earth or most map software, GeoJSON opens in GIS tools like QGIS or geojson.io, and CSV opens in any spreadsheet app.
