vutshi / pygpx Goto Github PK

This library is designed for parsing and manipulating gpx files in Python.

This project originally started: http://www.benno.id.au/code/pygpx/ by Ben Leslie. Modified by Nick Lang to work with GPX v1.1: https://github.com/fxdgear/pygpx

I am modifying it further. Changes are in CHANGE-LOG.

Required by pygpx:

• lxml

pygpx has now been converted to v0.3.

• v0.3 now supports the GPX schema v1.1. All files using pygpx should validate against v1.1
• pygpx now ships with the schema v1.1 and will run a validation test before running.
• Garmin supports exporting files to GPX valid against v1.1 so you shouldn't have any problems if you're using garmin software.
