GPX File

Category: GIS Files

What is a GPX file?

A GPS Exchange Format (GPX) stores a GPS file for unhindered usage by several global positioning and mapping software. These are based on XML and are easily transportable between one program to another, be it web services or standalone tools. A GPX file contains waypoints, tracks, and routes to pinpoint a location on the map via its latitude and longitude details.
The waypoint contains the GPS coordinates, and other requisite information, the route hols the track points that can lead the users to a destination, and the track includes the list of points that he must cover to reach the endpoint.
