 I had a viewer ask and he wants to know how do you convert a big CSV file into a GPX tracks? CVS file collected all the data with latitude and longitude values from different GPS tracks. I Had no clue what a GPX was So I quickly googled it and it's basically an XML format of some GPS locations and Coordinates so then I googled a little bit more. I said, you know GPX on Linux actually I convert I googled how to convert CSV to GPX Linux and the first thing that came up mentioned a program called GPS battle and so I quickly used aptitude and I searched for GPS and I just put a B like that and of course that program was available and I installed it using aptitude As you can see by here. There's an I'm indicating that it's already installed and there looks like there is a GUI too Which I did not look at so you can do that but this basic one especially if you're gonna be Scripting this out is what you want and the command to convert a CSV file Comments separated. I always say common separated value, but it's actually common separated DV stands for something else, but First I needed to get a CSV file that is GPS coordinates So I just googled it and found an example one which isn't real locations, but it's the correct formatting So I just used that I put it into a file called GPS dot CSV and enter and there you can see Yeah, the latitude longitude and you know location and a little more of comment there So how do we convert this into a GPX format using? GPS babble well once you have GPS babbles installed we'll say GPS babble and we'll say dash I for the input and the name of the input file and Oh, I'm sorry What type of file it is CSV and then we'll say the file input So dash F for the input files CSV and then we're just gonna say the output file dash O and we're gonna Say that it's going to be a GPX format because that's what the viewer requested and then dash capital F for your output file And we'll just call it new dot GPX So let's review. We got the name of the program Dash I for the type that the input file is it's a CSV file The name of the file so dash F says this is the name of the input file dash O for the type of Output file GPX and the dash capital F for the output file We'll hit enter and if we now cat out new GPX you can see that we now have an XML formatted GPS File so that's it fairly simple little one-liner there and That's how you do it So I thank you for watching. I think the viewer for asking the question as always I hope you visit my site films by Chris calm That's Chris at the K there should be a link in the description and as always I hope that you have a great day
