I have got the some Gps data in the form of Garmin's .gdb files. I have converted it to CSV files using GPSBabel.
The CSV output contains Latitude, Longitude, and some kind of free form text remarks. I do not see any timestamps.
Do Garmin's .gdb files contain timestamps?
This is the first time, I'm working with this file format, so my understanding of the format/data is spotty at best.
Where can I find more information about this format? How can I get the TimeStamps of the Gps points?
It's not a matter of the gdb format, but the CSV output driver of GPSbabel.
If you select that, only waypoints are available for conversion, and additional information gets dropped. See http://www.gpsbabel.org/htmldoc-development/fmt_csv.html for more details.
On this page you will find a note that the gdb format is undocumented.
You better select GPX output, which can be read by QGIS and others, or try some other formats suitable for you.
