Can anyone tell me the best way to save a large file that looks like this? I will be sharing it with colleagues to use in Matlab.
I have tried
save gps_table.mat gps %gps is name of variable
but this doesn't work, it tells me 'Cannot import from an empty input file'

>> writetable(gps,'gps_table.mat');
Unrecognized file extension '.mat'. Use the 'FileType' parameter to specify the file type.
>> writetable(gps,'gps_table','FileType','.mat');
Unrecognized file type '.mat'. The 'FileType' parameter must be 'text' or 'spreadsheet'.

Thank you! Unfortunately it doesn't work

Sorry, this should work.
save('gps_table.mat','gps');
Alternatively
writetable(gps,'gps_table.txt');
