GPX Analyzer

About this tool

GPX Analyzer reads a GPX file — the GPS track exported by a sports watch, phone app, bike computer, or route planner — and summarizes it:

• Distance — total track length in kilometres and miles, summed great-circle (haversine) between consecutive track points.
• Elevation — total ascent and descent, plus the minimum and maximum altitude, when the points carry <ele> data.
• Duration — wall-clock time from the first to the last timestamped point.
• Speed & pace — average speed in km/h and mph, and average pace in min/km and min/mi.

It reads <trkpt> (track), <rtept> (route), and <wpt> (waypoint) points, so it works for recorded activities and planned routes alike.

Everything is computed locally in your browser via WebAssembly — your GPX file is never uploaded.

Where to get a GPX file

• Strava: open an activity → ⋯ menu → Export GPX.
• Garmin Connect: open an activity → gear icon → Export to GPX.
• Komoot / Ride with GPS / AllTrails: use the route's Export / Download GPX option.
• Most apps that record or plan an outdoor activity can export .gpx.

Notes

• Distance uses the horizontal great-circle distance between points; it does not add the extra length from elevation change, so it matches how most apps report track distance.
• Elevation gain is the sum of all the uphill segments. GPS altitude is noisy, so the figure depends on how the track was recorded (barometric vs. GPS).
• Duration, speed and pace appear only when the track has <time> stamps.

Common uses

• Check the distance and climbing of a route before heading out.
• Pull pace and speed from a recorded run or ride.
• Sanity-check a track exported from one app before importing it into another.
