You are allowed to add two overlays which is a really nice little addition to the program. An overlay is a previously created route or track saved as a . KML file and uploaded to a web server, and then the Real Time setup points to the file. This is sort of neat so you can put the overlay there, then when you run\/walk\/bike\/ski\/drive the course your &#8220;guest&#8221; viewers can see where you are at on the actual course. You could create a collection of overlays, and then update the web site with the one you will want to display next, but I do not want to go in and have to change this all the time. I wondered if I could take several tracks and merge them together, then upload the combined KML file and see each of the courses. Turns out this can be done. I got a very simple program &#8220;KML Merge&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" title=\"KML Merge\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kasdorf.name\/gps\/Real_Time 05.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"367\" height=\"328\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" title=\"KML Merge 2\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kasdorf.name\/gps\/Real_Time 04.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"531\" height=\"491\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" title=\"KML Merge 3\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kasdorf.name\/gps\/Real_Time 03.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"563\" height=\"412\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" title=\"KML Merge 4\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kasdorf.name\/gps\/Real_Time 02.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"531\" height=\"491\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I created several KML files by exporting tracks out of Sport Tracks, then used KML Merge to&#8230; merge them together.
