JPX
JPX is a Java library for creating, reading and writing GPS data in GPX format. It is a full implementation of version 1.1 and version 1.0 of the GPX format. The data classes are completely immutable and allows a functional programming style. They are working also nicely with the Java 8 Stream API.
Beside the basic functionality of reading and writing GPX files, the library also allows to manipulate the read GPX object in a functional way.
Requirements
Runtime
- JRE 8: Java runtime version 8 is needed for using the library.
Build time
- JDK 8: The Java JDK 8 must be installed.
- Gradle 4.x: Gradle is used for building the library. (Gradle is download automatically, if you are using the Gradle Wrapper script
./gradlew
, located in the base directory, for building the library.) - TestNG 6.13: JPX uses TestNG framework for unit tests.
Building JPX
For building the JPX library you have to check out the master branch from Github.
$ git clone https://github.com/jenetics/jpx.git
Executing the tests:
$ cd jpx
$ ./gradle test
Building the library:
$ ./gradle jar
Examples
Creating new GPX object with 3 track-points
final GPX gpx = GPX.builder()
.addTrack(track -> track
.addSegment(segment -> segment
.addPoint(p -> p.lat(48.2081743).lon(16.3738189).ele(160))
.addPoint(p -> p.lat(48.2081743).lon(16.3738189).ele(161))
.addPoint(p -> p.lat(48.2081743).lon(16.3738189).ele(162))))
.build();
Writing GPX object to a file
GPX.write(gpx, "track.gpx");
GPX output
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<gpx version="1.1" creator="JPX - Java GPX library" xmlns="http://www.topografix.com/GPX/1/1">
<trk>
<trkseg>
<trkpt lat="48.2081743" lon="16.3738189">
<ele>160.0</ele>
</trkpt>
<trkpt lat="48.2081743" lon="16.3738189">
<ele>161.0</ele>
</trkpt>
<trkpt lat="48.2081743" lon="16.3738189">
<ele>162.0</ele>
</trkpt>
</trkseg>
</trk>
</gpx>
Reading GPX object from file
This example writes a given GPX
object to a file, reads it again and prints the WayPoint
s of all tracks and all track-segments to the console.
GPX.write(gpx, "track.gpx");
GPX.read("gpx.xml").tracks()
.flatMap(Track::segments)
.flatMap(TrackSegment::points)
.forEach(System.out::println);
Console output
$ [lat=48.2081743, lon=48.2081743, ele=160]
$ [lat=48.2081743, lon=48.2081743, ele=161]
$ [lat=48.2081743, lon=48.2081743, ele=162]
Reading GPX 1.0 and writing GPX 1.1
By default, JPX is reading and writing the GPX files in version 1.1. But it is possible to read and write GPX files in version 1.0 as well.
// Reading GPX 1.0 file.
final GPX gpx10 = GPX.reader(GPX.Version.V10).read("track-v10.gpx");
// Changing GPX version to 1.1.
final GPX gpx11 = gpx10.toBuilder()
.version(GPX.Version.V11)
.build();
// Writing GPX to file.
GPX.write(gpx11, "track-v11.gpx");
Geodetic calculations
Distance between two points
final Point start = WayPoint.of(47.2692124, 11.4041024);
final Point end = WayPoint.of(47.3502, 11.70584);
final Length distance = Geoid.WGS84.distance(start, end);
System.out.println(distance);
Console output
$ 24528.356073554987 m
Path length
Calculate the path length of the first track-segment.
final Length length = gpx.tracks()
.flatMap(Track::segments)
.findFirst()
.map(TrackSegment::points).orElse(Stream.empty())
.collect(Geoid.WGS84.toPathLength());
GPX manipulation/filtering
Filtering
The following example filters empty tracks and track-segments from an existing GPX
object.
final GPX gpx = GPX.read("track.gpx");
// Filtering empty tracks.
final GPX gpx1 = gpx.toBuilder()
.trackFilter()
.filter(Track::nonEmpty)
.build()
.build();
// Filtering empty track-segments.
final GPX gpx2 = gpx.toBuilder()
.trackFilter()
.map(track -> track.toBuilder()
.filter(TrackSegment::nonEmpty)
.build())
.build()
.build();
// Filtering empty tracks and track-segments.
final GPX gpx3 = gpx.toBuilder()
.trackFilter()
.map(track -> track.toBuilder()
.filter(TrackSegment::nonEmpty)
.build())
.filter(Track::nonEmpty)
.build()
.build();
Changing GPX object
Fixing the time of all track way-points by adding one hour.
final GPX gpx = GPX.read("track.gpx");
final GPX gpx1 = gpx.toBuilder()
.trackFilter()
.map(track -> track.toBuilder()
.map(segment -> segment.toBuilder()
.map(wp -> wp.toBuilder()
.time(wp.getTime()
.map(t -> t.plusHours(1))
.orElse(null))
.build())
.build())
.build())
.build()
.build();
Doing the same only for the GPX way-points.
final GPX gpx = GPX.read("track.gpx");
final GPX gpx1 = gpx.toBuilder()
.wayPointFilter()
.map(wp -> wp.toBuilder()
.time(wp.getTime()
.map(t -> t.plusHours(1))
.orElse(null))
.build())
.build()
.build();
