Emacs package that provides a major mode for viewing GPX files.
Preview: screenshot
The major mode displays .gpx files in a human readable format. When the major mode is active, the buffer displays various statistics about the file and lists all the tracks/segments found in the file.
The displayed information includes total length, time of start/end, average speed, max speed, etc.
It also supports drawing the routes found in the file. You can click on a button below a track and it will open a web browser showing that route on a map.
You can also display elevation profile for each track. To do that, click on the [Toggle elevation profile] button below a track, this will insert the elevation profile image below the track.
You need to install gpxinfo program in order to convert the files.
Additionally, if you want to be able to draw the routes on a map, in the default way, you need to install folium. See Configuration section below for alternatives.
In order to display elevation profiles, you need to install matplotlib Python library.
These dependencies can be installed on Debian-based systems with:
sudo apt-get install gpxinfo python3-folium python3-matplotlib
You can also install them via pip:
pip install gpx-cmd-tools folium matplotlib
If you want to show the routes inside of Emacs instead of a browser, you can use the OSM package and do:
(require 'osm)
(defun gpx-show-map-osm (file _track _segment)
(osm-gpx-show file))
(setq gpx-show-map-function #'gpx-show-map-osm)
Also, see the documentation of various gpx-*-function variables for more
configuration options.
