gpx-converter 1.6.0

Python package for manipulating gpx files and easily convert gpx to other different formats.

gpx_converter

Python package for manipulating gpx files and easily convert gpx to other different formats.

• Free software: MIT license

• Documentation: https://gpx-converter.readthedocs.io.

Motivation

I decided to create this project because I had gpx data that I needed to manipulate. I searched for a python package for this but I did not find what I was looking for, therefore I created the gpx-converter package to make gpx files manipulation very easy. Furthermore, the package contains methods for applying interpolation on the gpx data. This feature was very helpful for me since I also needed to interpolate the gpx data and convert it to csv. Feel free to contribute or to give me feedback anytime :)

Features

• Convert gpx files to other formats such as csv, dataframe, excel and json

• Convert csv files to gpx

• Apply interpolation on the gpx data

Installation

$ pip install gpx_converter

Quick Usage

from gpx_converter import Converter

• Convert from gpx to csv:

Converter(input_file=your_input_file).gpx_to_csv(output_file=your_output_file)

• Convert from gpx to excel sheets:

Converter(input_file=your_input_file).gpx_to_excel(output_file=your_output_file)

• Convert from gpx to json:

Converter(input_file=your_input_file).gpx_to_json(output_file=your_output_file)

• Convert gpx file to dataframe:

df = Converter(input_file=your_input_file).gpx_to_pandas_dataframe()

• Likewise you can convert the other way around -> from csv to gpx

Converter(input_file=your_input_file).csv_to_gpx(lats_colname=column_name_of_latitudes,
                                                 longs_colname=column_name_of_longitudes,
                                                 output_file=your_output_file)

• Automate the conversion of multiple csv file to gpx:

Converter.convert_multi_csv_to_gpx(dirpath='your_directory/')

• Apply spline interpolation on gpx file:

interpolated_coordinates = Converter.spline_interpolation(cv=your_array_of_control_vertices)
