Export & Send Routes from IMPARGO to Garmin Truck GPS

Still using Garmin Dezl, Overlander, or DriveSmart for truck navigation? IMPARGO lets you export dispatcher-planned routes for your navigation device with just a few clicks—so your drivers always have the right information.

  1. Plan your route in IMPARGO TMS and export it as a KML file.
  2. Convert KML to GPX using kml2gpx.com if needed.
  3. Import to Garmin BaseCamp, then transfer to your device via USB.
  4. Start navigating on your Garmin device with the dispatcher’s planned route.

For full digital tracking, live chat, and proof of delivery, use the IMPARGO DriverApp alongside Garmin. Cut admin time, reduce errors, and support your drivers on the road.

Send Dispatcher Routes from IMPARGO to TomTom Truck Navigation

Many fleets use TomTom GO Professional or GO Fleet. With IMPARGO, you can export any planned route for TomTom truck GPS devices, or use DriverApp for a full digital workflow. Your team gets both flexibility and consistency, with less risk of mistakes.

  1. Plan your truck route in IMPARGO, export as KML.
  2. Convert the KML file to GPX if required (with kml2gpx.com).
  3. Import the GPX file to your TomTom using MyDrive web, USB, SD card, or Bluetooth—whichever your device supports.
  4. Your dispatcher’s planned route appears on the TomTom, ready for navigation.

Or, navigate, track, and manage orders digitally with IMPARGO DriverApp and skip manual exports altogether.

FAQ: Sending Truck Routes to Navigation Apps

How do I send routes to a truck navigation app?

Plan your route in IMPARGO Truck Route Planner, dispatch directly to DriverApp, or export as KML/GPX for Garmin and TomTom truck navigation apps. One process, multiple options.

Can drivers use Garmin or TomTom instead of IMPARGO navigation?

Yes. Drivers can launch Garmin, TomTom, or other installed truck navigation apps from the DriverApp, always using the dispatcher’s planned route for accuracy and compliance.

What extra features do I get with IMPARGO DriverApp?

  • Real-time GPS tracking and driver behavior analytics: know where every truck is, reduce delays and missed deliveries.
  • Instant rerouting, chat, order instructions, and document/photo uploads—improve communication and react to issues quickly.
  • Digital proof of delivery (PoD) and order management—less paperwork, fewer disputes, and faster customer service.

Is there a cost to use IMPARGO for sending routes to navigation apps?

You can get started with a free IMPARGO account. Advanced fleet features, route planning, and digital order management are available with flexible pricing as your business grows.

Which fleets benefit most from IMPARGO?

IMPARGO supports FTL, LTL, express, bulk, silo, and ADR transport types—across Germany and all of Europe.

Can IMPARGO handle international or cross-border truck routes?

Yes! IMPARGO supports cross-border route planning, toll calculation, and compliance for pan-European and international transport operations. Learn more about toll calculation and cost calculation.


IMPARGO vs. Garmin & TomTom: What’s Best for Your Truck Navigation?

  • IMPARGO DriverApp: All-in-one—plan, send, track, reroute, communicate, and document in one workflow.
  • Garmin/TomTom: Robust navigation hardware; compatible with dispatcher route exports from IMPARGO; best for legacy fleets or mixed workflows.
  • Hybrid: Use both for maximum flexibility—digital management with IMPARGO, navigation on the device your drivers know.

Most modern fleets switch to IMPARGO TMS for the time savings, tracking, and digital proof of delivery—but IMPARGO supports both approaches.
