title: Extract

# { title }
This tool allows you to extract [tracks (or segments)](../gpx) from files (or tracks) containing multiple of them.
Applying the tool to a file containing multiple tracks will create a new file for each of the tracks it contains.
Similarly, applying the tool to a track containing multiple segments will create (in the same file) a new track for each of the segments it contains.
```
When extracting the tracks from a file containing points of interest, the tool will automatically assign each point of interest to the track it is closest to.
