-What's This
-===========
- gpx2navit_txt is a converter from GPX file to Navit Text map format
-
-For gpx2navit_txt was the original code from gpx2shp used and modified.
-This is a output of Metro Manila Transit Map Project by JOCV (Japan
-Overseas Cooperation Volunteers) program of JICA (Japan International
-Cooperation Agency in 2004. It is provided you on GPL2.
-
-Compilation/Installation
-========================
-run ./autogen.sh && ./configure && make
-run make install if you want the binary to be installed in your system.
-run make uninstall to wipe everything related.
-
-How to Use
-==========
-- Basic
- There are three types of data on GPX that are waypoint, trkpoint and
-route. gpx2navit_txt converts the data to navit file(s)
-Please try to convert a sample file "pinatest2.gpx" in this archive.
-
- prompt> gpx2navit_txt pinatest2.gpx
- prompt> ls
- pinatest2.gpx (source gpx)
- pinatest2_meta.txt (meta data may be there)
-
- You can convert only a certain type of data like only waypoint or
-track point using option '-w' (waypoint), '-t' (trackpoint) or '-r'
-(route).
-
- prompt> gpx2navit_txt -r pinatest2.gpx
-
-- Convert path data to points and etc
- As default, track point and route data is converted as a arc data but
-you can convert it other ways using option '-p'(convert as point) and
-'-e' (as edge). The edge file has '_edg' in the filename and the point
-file has '_pnt' in the filename.
-
- prompt> gpx2navit_txt -p -e pinatest2.gpx
-
-- Statistics
- If you add '-s' option you can see a conversion summery.
-
- prompt> gpx2navit_txt -s pinatest2.gpx
- Track Points:
- track count: 4
- point count: 658
- total length: 156565.627989
- unconverted: 0( 0.00%)
- Routes:
- route count: 1
- point count: 323
- total length: 9258.618971
- unconverted: 0( 0.00%)
- Waypoints:
- point count: 118
-
-- Noise reduction
- gpx2navit_txt has several thresholds to reduct the noise path data. The
-value can set as '--min-points', '--min-length' and '--min-time'. Please
-try a example below.
-
- prompt> gpx2navit_txt --min-points 6 -s pinatest2.gpx
- gpx2navit_txt:../pinatest3.gpx:3962 track was not converted because of
- less then 6 points. (<- this path is not converted because the path
- has only 5 points)
- Track Points:
- track count: 3
- point count: 653
- total length: 156439.490642
- unconverted: 1(25.00%)
- Routes:
- route count: 1
- point count: 323
- total length: 9258.618971
- unconverted: 0( 0.00%)
- Waypoints:
- point count: 118
-
-
-- Length and time units
- You can choose any length related units that are supported by proj4
-for attribute table using
- '--length-unit' (for length column, default: m),
- '--time-unit' (for time column, default: sec),
- '--speed-length-unit' (for speed column, default: km),
- '--speed-time-unit' (for speed column, default: hour) and
- '--length-ellipsoid' (for length calculation, default: UGS84).
- You can see the supported units by 'geod -lu' and 'geod -le' command.
- Supported time unit are 'sec', 'min', 'hour' and 'day'.
-
-- Other futures
- There are other futures in gpx2navit_txt. Please check the option list using
-
- gpx2navit_txt --help
