QUICK ANSWER
Is it possible to convert RTMAP to TRK?
No - not a direct conversion.

These are fundamentally different kinds of data - a map background versus a path recorded while traveling - and no converter exists for this pair. To get a TRK file, record a track on a TwoNav device or download a route as a .gpx file from a community site.

Why convert RTMAP to TRK?

An RTMAP (CompeGPS / TwoNav Tiled Raster Map) is a georeferenced raster image - a background map stored as tiles with a companion .imp index file. A TRK file is a GPS track: a sequence of latitude/longitude coordinates showing where someone traveled. One is the map; the other is the path drawn on the map, and a raster image does not contain coordinate sequences.

How to convert RTMAP to TRK

TwoNav Land FREE

Open RTMAP maps in TwoNav Land (twonav.com) and load a separately recorded or downloaded .trk or .gpx file to display the track overlaid on the map - the map and track are separate files, not a conversion.

About these formats

.RTMAP CompeGPS / TwoNav Tiled Raster Map

An RTMAP file is a tiled raster map image from TwoNav (formerly CompeGPS). It is not a standalone file - a working map is a set of .rtmap tiles plus an .imp control file that must stay…

.TRK GPS Track File

A TRK file is a plain-text GPS track log - a recorded sequence of latitude, longitude, altitude, and timestamps. It was created by CompeGPS Land (now TwoNav Land) or a Garmin GPS device…

Quality & what to watch

  • RTMAP files contain georeferencing data for positioning the map image correctly, not GPS coordinate sequences - there is nothing to extract as a track.
  • TwoNav records movement as a .trk or .gpx file during navigation; this file is created separately from the map and must be obtained independently.
  • A single .rtmap tile requires the companion .imp control file and all sibling tiles to display correctly in TwoNav Land.

Frequently asked questions

Why do search engines suggest converting RTMAP to TRK?
Both formats appear in the TwoNav ecosystem, so conversion databases pair them automatically based on search queries - it is not a real conversion that any software performs.
Can I extract location data from an RTMAP file?
The .imp control file stores the map's bounding coordinates and projection, not a path or route - you cannot extract a meaningful GPS track from it.
Where do I get a TRK file for my TwoNav maps?
Record a track on a TwoNav device or app, or download a route from a community site (Wikiloc, Komoot) as a .gpx file and open it in TwoNav Land.
