GPX Merger

A simple script to merge multiple GPX files into one large GPX file.

Use Case

During holidays, one or more tracks are created for each tour / day. In the end a single GPX Track is required for example to use in Lightroom in order for easy geo tagging or to get an overall map of all tracks.

Thus, a single GPX Track should be created from multiple GPX files.

Usage

python gpxmerger.py "C:\Users\[...]\Track_1.gpx" "C:\Users\[...]\Track_2.gpx" The merged track is written as merged.gpx into the directory of the first GPX file.

In Windows, create a desktop link / shortcut with:

• Target: [path to]\python.exe gpxmerger.py
• Execute in: [path to gpxmerger.py directory]
• select multiple GPX files and drag & drop them to the link - the merged.gpx is created next to the selected tracks.

Logging output is written to Console and into gpxmerger.log in the directory of the gpxmerger.py.
