What’s in a GPX File? Here’s what a GPX file looks like if you open it up. ![]() It might look crazy now, but if you know what to look for, you’ll be able to decode it and understand what you’re looking at. If you open up a GPX file, you’ll see that it’s simply a text file. You can open a GPX file with any text editor or word processor. There are also more sophisticated tools that offer mapping and are easier to work with, and I’ll talk about those later. The GPX file was specified in the text format so that any type of device could easily open and read it without a fuss. Think of the GPX file like a bulleted outline containing your GPS information. Information that is indented belongs to the higher level bullet point. Instead of plain text like the last image, the GPX file is written in XML (eXtensible Markup Language). The XML data is indented just like our bulleted list is, and has the same information, but just in the XML format. If you open a GPX file with a text editor and it’s not formatted nicely like this or is all on one line, just cut and past it into a tool like and XML formatter, process it, and then paste it back to your file. Sometimes programs remove all the white space from the GPX file to reduce the file size. GPS Units just look for the XML language in the file and don’t care about the whitespace, although most programs will save it with the indentations to make it easier for humans to work with. It features offline maps, turn-by-turn directions, and updated maps via OpenStreetMap. Each piece of information in a GPX file is surrounded by tags. is another free navigation app and GPS app. GPX Viewer PRO is highly customizable.Some tags, like above, have the information between an opening and closing tag: and.The tags tell the reader (whether a GPS unit or computer) what information is contained between it. adjustable recording profiles for various outdoor activities.record and export your trips into gpx or kml files.wide variety of offline map styles from city to outdoor oriented styles, preview:.detailed worldwide offline vector maps based on OpenStreetMap data.synchronize tracks and waypoints created on Trackbook.notification when GPS position is near waypoint with adjustable distance.with follow GPS position and rotate map features, GPX Viewer PRO can be used as a simple navigation tool.rotate map according to device orientation sensor or according to movement direction data from GPS.follow GPS position continuously by adjusting map position.OpenWeatherMap weather layers and overlays.online maps such as Google Maps, Mapbox, HERE, Thunderforest and some others based on OpenStreetMap data, preview:.colorize track and route line by elevation, speed, cadence, heart rate or air temperature.analyze information for waypoints and adjust their icons.Use a free online GPX editor to modify a GPX file. view graphs of other track data like cadence, heart rate, power and air temperature Here are the methods to edit GPX files on your Windows 11/10 computer: Try free software to edit a GPX file.view graphs (charts) like elevation profile and speed profile for tracks and routes.analyze information and statistics for tracks and routes.compress gpx files into gpz and kml files into kmz (zip archives).file browser which opens multiple files and has support for favorite files and history.edit tracks, routes and waypoints metadata. ![]()
