GPX vs ODS: what changes when you convert

GPX is built for exchanging GPS data between devices and apps. ODS is built for open-source office suites and the public sector.

GPX

What is a GPX file?

GPX (GPS Exchange Format) is an open, XML-based format for GPS data. A single file can hold waypoints, routes and tracks, with coordinates in WGS84 latitude and longitude.

Almost every GPS device, sports watch and outdoor app exports GPX, which makes it the default format for sharing recorded trips. Because it is plain XML, large track logs get bulky and slow to search.

ODS

What is an ODS file?

ODS (OpenDocument Spreadsheet) is the open, ISO-standard spreadsheet format used by LibreOffice Calc and also supported by Excel and Google Sheets.

Location is stored in coordinate columns or as WKT text. Public bodies often prefer ODS because it is an open standard.

What to know before converting GPX to ODS

Your GPX file

Waypoints, routes and tracks come through as separate layers; track points keep their elevation and time.

The ODS output

Geometry is stored as text — coordinates or WKT — in columns next to the attributes.

Privacy

Your file never leaves your device: conversion runs in your browser, for files up to 100 MB.
