LoadMyTracks is a utility that allows users of the Macintosh to download track, route, and waypoint information from a variety of GPS receivers from Garmin, Magellan, TomTom, Sony, Lowrance, Timex, and turn them into GPX files or KML files (for use with Google Earth).
LoadMyTracks can also send Tracks, Waypoints, and Routes to your Garmin and Magellan GPS devices (support for other manufacturers will be forthcoming)! It will also translate GPX files to KML and convert some existing saved files from certain (Lowrance and Magellan) GPS receivers. Using extensions to GPX 1.1, it will also place cadence, heart rate, and lap information into the GPX files.
LoadMyTracks will also import and export Geocaching information from supported devices and file formats (including LOC for import and GPX for import and export).
