When Do You Need to Convert GPX to GEOJSON?
GPX is what GPS devices, running watches and hiking apps export. Converting GPX to GeoJSON puts a track, route or set of waypoints into the format web maps and analysis tools expect.
What Happens When You Convert GPX to GEOJSON
GDAL reads the GPX and writes GeoJSON. A GPX file distinguishes waypoints, routes and tracks, and these become point and line features. The detail worth knowing is what happens to the extra data a GPS records: elevation, timestamps and sometimes heart rate or cadence are stored per track point, and how much of that carries into GeoJSON properties depends on the source file. Coordinates are WGS84 in both formats, so no reprojection is involved.
Worth knowing before you convert
Long recordings produce a great many track points, which makes for a large GeoJSON file. Simplifying the track is usually worthwhile before putting it on a web map.

Conversion Notes
GIS format conversion preserves geometry and attribute data, but coordinate reference systems may differ between GPX and GEOJSON. Our converter re-projects coordinates where needed. Complex curved geometries may be approximated as straight-line segments in formats that don't natively support them. Attribute field names may be truncated in legacy formats with character limits.
Frequently Asked Questions
Elevation and time are recorded per point in GPX and generally carry across as properties, though how completely depends on how the device wrote the file.
