GMTGPX

GMTGPX is a software utility designed for parsing and manipulating GPX (GPS Exchange Format) files. GPX is a widely used XML-based format for recording GPS track logs, waypoints, and routes. GMTGPX allows users to read, process, and write these files, facilitating various applications related to GPS data.

The primary function of GMTGPX is to provide a command-line interface for interacting with GPX data. This makes it suitable for scripting and automation tasks, enabling users to perform operations on multiple GPX files programmatically. Common operations include extracting specific data points, filtering tracks based on criteria such as distance or elevation, converting between different GPX versions, and merging or splitting track logs.

GMTGPX is often used by geocachers, hikers, cyclists, and other outdoor enthusiasts who rely on GPS devices for navigation and activity tracking. It can also be integrated into larger software projects that require GPS data processing capabilities. The tool's ability to handle GPX data in a flexible and scriptable manner makes it a valuable resource for developers and advanced users alike. Its open-source nature further contributes to its accessibility and adaptability within the GPS data community.
