Gps Xml
What is a good editor for GPX data (the GPS exchange format)?
I have a file of GPX data for a track I recorded, but as it turns out, the elevation data is faulty throughout, so I would like to edit out all the
If you simply want to delete the elevation data, then you don’t really need an XML editor (which would have far more functionality than you need), just a basic text editor with moderately advanced search functions — or, ideally search and replace.
For example, the primitive ‘vi’ text editor would be able to do this (as available on most Unix/Linux systems and embedded in Mac OS’s underlying Unix layer).
In vi, the command would be something like:
:g/^ *
Which does a global search (the “g” following the command prompt “:”) for the content between the slashes, with the embedded slash ‘escaped’ with a reverse slash, and then deletes the line (the “d” at the end). The “.*” between the elevation tags matches tells the program to match any character (the ‘.’) as many times as possible (the ‘*’). The text between the outer slashes is called a “regular expression”, and is essentially a micro-language that describes a pattern in the text.
Clearly, you’d need to be familiar with vi to know how to do this example, but the point is that the function you are looking for is a global-search-and-replace, not something to do with XML. Even Microsoft Word has some ability along these lines, although it isn’t as capable as that in vi (and is poorly documented, unfortunately).
If you are a moderately technical person, you should examine any text editors you have available to see if they can do this, or hunt down a likely freeware candidate, some of which will be much easier to use that the thirty-plus-year-old vi.
What you are looking for is:
* Global search and replace, with
* “Regular expression” pattern matching.
