+===== What is export for? =====
-Exporting tracks is the only way how to transfer them from Locus Map to another mobile or desktop application for further processing.

+**Tracks and routes are exported** to another mobile, to a desktop application or web service **for further processing - displaying in a different environment, background, for editing** etc.

The XML is similar to GPX since it exports GPS tracks, but treats a track as an Activity rather than simply a series of GPS points.
