What is a XLS file?
XLS is the proprietary spreadsheet format used by Microsoft Excel prior to the introduction of XLSX in 2007. It uses a binary file structure and supports formulas, charts, macros, and formatting.
XLS files remain widely compatible and are still used in many organizations. However, XLSX offers better performance and security.
How to open XLS files
XLS files can be opened using Microsoft Excel, Google Sheets, LibreOffice Calc, and other spreadsheet applications. They support charts, formulas, and formatting.

What is a GPX file?
GPX (GPS Exchange Format) is an XML-based file format used to store GPS data, including waypoints, tracks, and routes. It’s widely supported across GPS devices, mapping applications, and fitness trackers.
GPX files are used for outdoor navigation, trip logging, and sharing geospatial data. They are both human- and machine-readable, making them easy to inspect and edit.
