PHP-GPX-Ingest
==============

[](#php-gpx-ingest)

PHP GPX-Ingest is a simple PHP class designed to ingest a basic Global Position eXchange (GPX) file and extract data/stats from the tracks within. It's been tested with the GPX files output by the Android app SpeedView.

Documentation and example usage can be found in [the class documentation on my website](http://www.bentasker.co.uk/documentation/development-programming/222-php-gpx-ingest).

Features
--------

[](#features)

The class has the following features

- Import basic GPX files
- Generate stats for each track, and maintain global stats
- 'SmartTrack' functionality - if an excessive delay is detected between trackpoints a new track will be started (can be disabled/threshold adjusted)
- Ability to suppress data - Can prevent speed, location, dates and/or elevation from being included in the resulting Journey object.
- Auto calculation of distance travelled based on lat/lon changes. See [GPXIN-6](http://projects.bentasker.co.uk/jira_projects/browse/GPXIN-6.html)
- Auto calculation of speed based on distance travelled, if speed not defined within the GPX file. See [GPXIN-13](http://projects.bentasker.co.uk/jira_projects/browse/GPXIN-13.html)
- Support for waypoints [GPXIN-24](http://projects.bentasker.co.uk/jira_projects/browse/GPXIN-24.html)
- Support for Routes [GPXIN-27](http://projects.bentasker.co.uk/jira_projects/browse/GPXIN-27.html)
