wbt -> gpx waypoints not in track?

Rate this Message:
Hello List,
I have a problem where I don't know if I expect the wrong thing or if it's a bug: When downloading data from my wbt-201 to a gpx file the waypoints are not attached to the tracks but standing alone before the tracks in the gpx file. Then I try to split the file by timestamp (I find the timestap by script an then run the trackfilter with start,stop as a workaround to the missing splitbytrack feature) ... but then each new split file gets _all_ waypoints attached, also these not in the expected start/stop range... Is this behavior expected or did I discover a bug?

Tracks consist of trackpoints, not waypoints. Waypoints are different and represented as such in GPX and most other formats.
The track filter works on tracks; it does not filter waypoints. RJL

After the files are split, which is relatively easy to do in a program such as routeconverter, where it loads the whole file and shows the splits as separate sub-files, you can then save each sub-file as its own file, and then from that file delete the waypoints that do not apply to that file, so you end up with the waypoints and tracks as separate files, as well as the route as a third file if you so choose.

Hi,
As mentioned, this is the correct/expected behaviour of gpsbabel as it treats tracks and waypoints as different things. However, you do have a couple of options: 1. Discard the waypoints using the -x nuketypes,waypoints filter. This will stop them from appearing in your filtered output. http://www.gpsbabel.org/htmldoc-1.3.6/filter_nuketypes.html 2. Convert the waypoints to track points using the -x transform,trk=wpt,del filter. This will let the waypoints be filtered as if they were track points (i.e. the start/stop options will work.) You'll need the del flag as otherwise the waypoints will still come through, and you may also need to use the -x track,merge if some waypoints have timestamps that are the same as some track points. http://www.gpsbabel.org/htmldoc-1.3.6/filter_transform.html Kind regards, Tom Paton http://gpsloglabs.com/ On Tue, Oct 20, 2009 at 7:07 AM, RsH <robert.heuman@...> wrote: > On Sun, 18 Oct 2009 09:17:29 +0200, you wrote: > >>Hello List, >> >>I have a problem where I don't know if I expect the wrong thing or if >>it's a bug: >> >>When downloading data from my wbt-201 to a gpx file the waypoints are >>not attached to the tracks but standing alone before the tracks in the >>gpx file. >> >>Then I try to split the file by timestamp (I find the timestap by >>script an then run the trackfilter with start,stop as a workaround to >>the missing splitbytrack feature) ... but then each new split file >>gets _all_ waypoints attached, also these not in the expected >>start/stop range... >> >>Is this behavior expected or did I discover a bug? >> >>Thanks, >>bernhard > > This is expected behaviour.

Hi,
Tom gave my the hints I needed, and corresponding to the old unix style (do not much but that right) of gpsbabel I could get in the end what I expected. > As mentioned, this is the correct/expected behaviour of gpsbabel as it > treats tracks and waypoints as different things. > > However, you do have a couple of options: > > 1.

"splice" into 2 files: tracks and waypoints only 3. convert waypoints to track 4. split original tracks by time 5. split tracks derived from waypoints by time 6. convert tracks to waypoints (discarding tracks) 7. merging waypoint files an track files again done :) Thanks for clarifications and hints, bernhard ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!

drop file, output to same directory??
by Ross Dillon
::
Rate this Message:
In Windows, I had a shortcut that I could drop a CSV-formatted input file onto and it would create the NMEA output file in the same directory as the input file. The command line for that in DOS was:
gpsbabel.exe -p "" -t -i unicsv -f %1 -o nmea -F "%~dpn1".gps I have no idea how to do this in OSX. Another gentleman has been patiently helping me with developing a script in Platypus but it isn't working...no files are created. His script reads: -------------------- #!/bin/bash
# store a reference to GPSBabel
gpsbabel="$1/Contents/Resources/gpsbabel"
# shift the program arguments
shift
while [ $# -gt 1 ]
do
# fill the infile variable
infile="${1}"
# generate a basic filename, remove the shortest part after a dot.
outfile="${infile%.*}
# call gpsbabel
"$gpsbabel" -t -i nmea -f "$infile" -o gpx -F "$outfile.gpx" -o kml "$outfile.kml"
# shift to the next input file
shift
done #------------------------------The new GPS Babel website has the following command line in a script for converting files...but it requires the output file to be defined in advance. While do-able, it's inconvenient. I'd prefer the above option------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!
