Hi Marcelo,

Avisoft-SASLab Pro (http://www.avisoft.com/soundanalysis.htm) has a command=
 (File/Specials/Georeference .wav files...) that can do this.

This tool looks up the coordinates by using a GPS track log file (.gpx or N=
MEA .txt) and the time stamps of the .wav files and then saves the GPS coor=
dinates for each .wav file in the specified folder into a separate .gpx or =
.kml file. The software can create either a single .gpx/.kml output file fo=
r all .wav files in the folder or individual files for each .wav file. The =
advantage of this concept is that these files can be opened directly in Goo=
gle Earth.

Regards,
Raimund
