Title: Is there a way to download more than 1 gpx file at a time from geocaching.com???
Post by: rxist2be on May 10, 2006, 07:50:49 PM
Just wondering if there is a way to download more than one gpx file at a time from geocaching.com. I know you can download multiple loc files, but what about the gpx? I upgraded to premium so that I could download the gpx files. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I will still play around and try and figure it out. Thanks

I think that I might have figured out my own question. I guess you have to do a pocket query, and it took me awhile to find the right page to submit it. Does anybody know if there is a way to do an instant pocket query (to be able to download more than one gpx file at a time) at geocaching.com without waiting for the batches?

I see you haven't gotten an answer to your question.

I have seen that if I set the date for a pocket query to today, I get a file almost instaneously by email.

Yes, I wonder why Groundspeak doesn't allow you to do this as a direct download, but they have their reasons. I would check the web site section of the geocaching forum, as this topic seems to come up there frequently.

There's a piece of software called GeoToad. It's open source and it will allow you to query geocaching.com and pull in all Waypoints in your seach query.

Really Really Cool
