GPX Utils
A set of utilities to operate on GPX files and sets of GPX files.
Reading GPX Files
The GPX reader class DerickR/GPX/Reader
can be used to read a GPX file.
It can read GPX routes (rte
/rtept
) and if none are
present, it will read a GPX track (trk
/trkseg
/trkpt
) instead.
You can read a GPX file with:
To access the tracks, you can use the getTrack()
method which returns a
DerickR/GPX/Track
object, which encapsulates a ordered set of coordinate
pairs. If the GPX file had multiple tracks, these are merged into one:
$track = $gpxInformation->getTrack();
To get individual tracks out of a GPX file, you can use the getTracks()
method to obtain an array of Track
objects:
$tracks = $gpxInformation->getTracks();
foreach ( $tracks as $track )
{
/* Do something with $track */
}
For GPX files that contain routes (rte
/rtept
) this will still return a
merged track.
For GPX files that contain tracks (trk
/trkseg
) this return an array of
tracks, with each Track
object representing a track as stored in the GPX
file.
To merge tracks stored in multiple GPX files, see Merging GPX Files.
Writing GPX Files
The GPX writer class DerickR/GPX/Writer
can be used to write a Track
object as a GPX track using trk
/trkseg
/trkpt
elements. It only
supports the lat
and lon
XML elements.
You can write a track to GPX file with:
Instead of writing GPX XML directly to a file, it is also possible to retrieve a string with this information, by using the `getGpxString()` method:
Operating on Tracks
The Track
class has several methods to operate on GPX tracks. The
following methods are supported:
getTrackData
Returns an array with lat/lon coordinate pairs.
getFirstPointAsGeoJson
Returns the first element in the track as a GeoJson formatted array.
getLastPointAsGeoJson
Returns the last element in the track as a GeoJson formatted array.
appendTrack( Track $newTrack )
Adds all the coordinate pairs from $newTrack
in sequence to the track.
reverse()
Reverses the array of coordinate pairs that make up the track.
truncatePrecision( int $decimals )
Loops over all the coordinate pairs in the track, and truncates the number
of decimals in the coordinate pair to $decimals
. In a second loop, it
merges two consecutive coordinate pairs if they are the same after
truncation.
Merging GPX Files
The Utils::createMergedTrack
static method can be used to combine a set of
GPX files. The method automatically reverses and selects the order in which
the tracks are merged, based on the first and last points in the track.
The second argument to createMergedTrack
determines how far (in metres)
the different points of different tracks might lay away from each other to be
considered as consecutive. By default, this is 25.0
metres.
If the GPX files are not consecutive then an Exception in thrown.
For example to merge all GPX files in a directory, you would use:
