GPX Maps

Within Team Maps you can view a GPX map for any GPX feed that you have created within a Team Map.

To create a new Team Map click this link to Create a New Team Map then select 'GPX' and follow the instructions.

See this Tutorial for a guide to creating a map from a GPX feed.

There are two Leaflet-based tools available to map route data in GPX format :

(1) GPX Maps - displays just a map and elevation chart (see image to left).

(2) Video GPX Maps - used when a YouTube video ID is specified (see image below).

Embedding

You can easily add a GPX map to a web page by copying and pasting a simple HTML script.

Local Hosting

You can download all the files required to locally host a GPX map on your computer or website. No API key is required for these maps since they use the free Leaflet API.

What Is GPX ?

GPX is a data format widely used by GPS systems. More information is available at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GPS_Exchange_Format.

Tools To Create GPX Files

A number of mobile apps are available to record GPX tracks. One recommended app is GPS Logger which is a simple, free GPX recorder.

Demonstration Map

This GPX Map shows an embeddable map with an elevation chart. Controls are available to (1) Play/pause the animation and (2) View Satellite/Street View imagery for a map location.

Click on the map or the elevation chart to select the nearest point along the route.

The map displays trail data from 360 TrailView, a website which lets you virtually explore ATV trails using panoramic YouTube videos and Google Maps.
