GpxJs

GpxJs is a lightweight JS library wich parse .gpx file and get or compute various datas like

• GPX metadata
• total and cumulate distances
• min, max, average, positive and negative height difference
• Hr, Cadence, Temperature (exported from Garmin devices)

It is created by Lucas, Original Repo

I added some support to new elements exported from my Garmin Edge 830 device as HR, Cadence and Temperature

How to do

Install from npm

npm install --save gpx-js

Load JavaScript file

From an HTML document :

<script src="./js/GpxJs.js"></script>

From a node.js script :

let gpx = require('gpx-js');

Create and parse file

var gpx = new GpxJs(); //Create GpxJs Object
gpx.parse("<xml><gpx></gpx></xml>"); //parse gpx file from string data

Use the gpx Object

var totalDistance = gpx.tracks[0].distance.total;

Export GpxJs Object to GeoJSON

let geoJSON = gpx.toGeoJSON();
