phpGPX

Code Climate Latest development Packagist downloads Gitter, (*1)

Simple library written in PHP for reading and creating GPX files. Documentation is available using GitHub pages generated by Jekyll., (*2)

Contribution and feedback is welcome! Please check the issues for TODO. I will be happy every feature or pull request., (*3)

Repository branches:, (*4)

  • master: latest stable version
  • develop: works on 2.x

Features

Supported Extensions

Stats calculation

  • (Smoothed) Distance (m)
  • Average speed (m/s)
  • Average pace (s/km)
  • Min / max altitude (m)
  • Min / max coordinates ([lat,lng])
  • (Smoothed) Elevation gain / loss (m)
  • Start / end (DateTime object)
  • Start / end coordinates ([lat,lng])
  • Duration (seconds)

Installation

You can easily install phpGPX library with composer. There is no stable release yet, so please use release candidates., (*5)

composer require sibyx/phpgpx:1.3.0

Examples

Open GPX file and load basic stats

<?php
use phpGPX\phpGPX;

$gpx = new phpGPX();

$file = $gpx->load('example.gpx');

foreach ($file->tracks as $track)
{
    // Statistics for whole track
    $track->stats->toArray();

    foreach ($track->segments as $segment)
    {
        // Statistics for segment of track
        $segment->stats->toArray();
    }
}

Writing to file

<?php
use phpGPX\phpGPX;

$gpx = new phpGPX();

$file = $gpx->load('example.gpx');

// XML
$file->save('output.gpx', phpGPX::XML_FORMAT);

//JSON
$file->save('output.json', phpGPX::JSON_FORMAT);

Creating file from scratch

<?php

use phpGPX\Models\GpxFile;
use phpGPX\Models\Link;
use phpGPX\Models\Metadata;
use phpGPX\Models\Point;
use phpGPX\Models\Segment;
use phpGPX\Models\Track;

require_once '/vendor/autoload.php';

$sample_data = [

        'latitude' => 54.9328621088893,
        'elevation' => 0,
        'time' => new \DateTime("+ 1 MINUTE")
    ],

];

// Creating sample link object for metadata
$link = new Link();
$link->href = "https://sibyx.github.io/phpgpx";
$link->text = 'phpGPX Docs';

// GpxFile contains data and handles serialization of objects
$gpx_file = new GpxFile();

// Creating sample Metadata object
$gpx_file->metadata = new Metadata();

// Time attribute is always \DateTime object!
$gpx_file->metadata->time = new \DateTime();

// Description of GPX file
$gpx_file->metadata->description = "My pretty awesome GPX file, created using phpGPX library!";

// Adding link created before to links array of metadata
// Metadata of GPX file can contain more than one link
$gpx_file->metadata->links[] = $link;

// Creating track
$track = new Track();

// Name of track
$track->name = "Some random points in logical order. Input array should be already ordered!";

// Type of data stored in track
$track->type = 'RUN';

// Source of GPS coordinates

// Creating Track segment
$segment = new Segment();


foreach ($sample_data as $sample_point)
{
    // Creating trackpoint
    $point = new Point(Point::TRACKPOINT);
    $point->latitude = $sample_point['latitude'];
    $point->longitude = $sample_point['longitude'];
    $point->elevation = $sample_point['elevation'];
    $point->time = $sample_point['time'];

    $segment->points[] = $point;
}

// Add segment to segment array of track
$track->segments[] = $segment;

// Recalculate stats based on received data
$track->recalculateStats();

// Add track to file
$gpx_file->tracks[] = $track;

// GPX output
$gpx_file->save('CreatingFileFromScratchExample.gpx', \phpGPX\phpGPX::XML_FORMAT);

// Serialized data as JSON
$gpx_file->save('CreatingFileFromScratchExample.json', \phpGPX\phpGPX::JSON_FORMAT);

// Direct GPX output to browser

header("Content-Type: application/gpx+xml");
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=CreatingFileFromScratchExample.gpx");

echo $gpx_file->toXML()->saveXML();
exit();

Currently, supported output formats:, (*6)

  • XML
  • JSON

Configuration

Use the static constants in phpGPX to modify behaviour., (*7)

/**
 * Create Stats object for each track, segment and route
 */
public static $CALCULATE_STATS = true;

/**
 * Additional sort based on timestamp in Routes & Tracks on XML read.
 * Disabled by default, data should be already sorted.
 */
public static $SORT_BY_TIMESTAMP = false;

/**
 * Default DateTime output format in JSON serialization.
 */
public static $DATETIME_FORMAT = 'c';

/**
 * Default timezone for display.
 * Data are always stored in UTC timezone.
 */
public static $DATETIME_TIMEZONE_OUTPUT = 'UTC';

/**
 * Pretty print.
 */
public static $PRETTY_PRINT = true;

/**
 * In stats elevation calculation: ignore points with an elevation of 0
 * This can happen with some GPS software adding a point with 0 elevation
 */
public static $IGNORE_ELEVATION_0 = true;

/**
 * Apply elevation gain/loss smoothing? If true, the threshold in
 * ELEVATION_SMOOTHING_THRESHOLD and ELEVATION_SMOOTHING_SPIKES_THRESHOLD (if not null) applies
 */
public static $APPLY_ELEVATION_SMOOTHING = false;

/**
 * if APPLY_ELEVATION_SMOOTHING is true
 * the minimum elevation difference between considered points in meters
 */
public static $ELEVATION_SMOOTHING_THRESHOLD = 2;

/**
 * if APPLY_ELEVATION_SMOOTHING is true
 * the maximum elevation difference between considered points in meters
 */
public static $ELEVATION_SMOOTHING_SPIKES_THRESHOLD = null;

/**
 * Apply distance calculation smoothing? If true, the threshold in
 * DISTANCE_SMOOTHING_THRESHOLD applies
 */
public static $APPLY_DISTANCE_SMOOTHING = false;

/**
 * if APPLY_DISTANCE_SMOOTHING is true
 * the minimum distance between considered points in meters
 */
public static $DISTANCE_SMOOTHING_THRESHOLD = 2;
