Practical guides
Thirteen guides to prepare, correct and share your GPS tracks, from the first line on the map to sharing out in the field — on foot, by bike, on the water, or to organise an event.
Create & plan
Creating a GPX route from scratch without a mobile app
Drop points on the map and let routing plot the real path.
How to plan a hiking route, from map to GPX file
The full method, from the first point to a file ready to take with you.
Planning food stops and accommodation for a multi-day trip
Markers, stage splitting and a road book for a multi-day trip.
On the water
Analyse
Reading and preparing an elevation profile before a trail or hiking outing
Ascent, descent, elevation correction and gradient colouring.
Analysing gravel route surfaces before you ride
Dirt, gravel, tarmac: know what you're riding on before you load the bike.
Estimating the time and effort of a route before you set off
An estimate that accounts for the real terrain, not just an average speed.
Comparing two variants of the same route
Two tracks, one panel, to decide between two options.
